//  on  Sabbath,  say  the  following: 
(Psalm  xcn) 

A  PSALM  OR  SONG  FOR  THE  SABBATH  DAY 

IT  is  a  good  thing  to  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord, 
and  to  sing  praises  unto  Thy  name,  O  most  High: 

To  shew  forth  Thy  lovingkindness  in  the  morn- 
ing, and  Thy  faithfulness  every  night, 

Upon  an  instrument  of  ten  strings,  and  upon  the 
psaltery ;  upon  the  harp  with  a  solemn  sound. 

For  Thou,  Lord,  hast  made  me  glad  through  Thy 
work:  I  will  triumph  in  the  works  of  Thy  hands. 

O  Lord,  how  great  are  Thy  works!  and  Thy 
thoughts  are  very  deep. 

A  coarse  man  knoweth  not;  neither  doth  a  fool 
understand  this. 

When  the  wicked  spring  as  the  grass,  and  when 
all  the  workers  of  iniquity  do  flourish ;  it  is  that  they 
shall  be  destroyed  for  ever : 

Hut  Thou,  Lord,  art  most  high  for  evermore. 

For,  lo,  Thine  enemies,  O  Lord,  for,  lo,  Thine 
enemies  shall  perish;  all  the  workers  of  iniquity 
shall  be  scattered. 

But  my  horn  shalt  Thou  exalt  like  the  horn  of  an 
unicorn :  I  shall  be  anointed  with  fresh  oil. 

Mine  eye  shall  also  see  the  discomfiture  of  mine 
enemies,  and  mine  ears  shall  hear  the  wail  of  the 
wicked  that  rise  up  against  me. 

The  righteous  shall  flourish  like  the  palm  tree: 
he  shall  grow  like  a  cedar  in  Lebanon. 

Those  that  be  planted  in  the  house  of  the  Lord 
shall  flourish  in  the  courts  of  our  God. 

They  shall  still  bring  forth  fruit  fn  old  age;  they 
shall  be  fat  and  flourishing; 

To  shew  that  the  Lord  is  upright :  He  is  my  rock, 
and  there  is  no  unrighteousness  in  Him.

PRAISE  ye  the  Lord  unto  whom  all  praise  be- 
longeth. 

Praised  be  the  Lord  unto  whom  all  praise  be- 
longeth,  now  and  for  evermore. 

(Congregation  Sitting) 

With  grateful  hearts  we  come  before  Thee,  O 
Lord,  to  thank  Thee  for  all  Thy  mercies  towards 
us.  Thou  hast  ordained  that  day  and  night,  sum- 
mer and  winter,  seed  time  and  harvest  shall  never 
cease.  Thus  day  is  followed  by  night  and  darkness 
rolls  away,  in  turn,  before  the  light.  Thou  hast  set 
the  stars  in  their  appointed  places,  the  planets  in 
their  orbs  Thou  dost  regulate,  that  the  vaulted  dome 
of  heaven  may  speak  Thy  praise,  and  make  mani- 
fest Thy  profound  wisdom  to  all  mankind. 

Thy  children,  O  Father,  meditating  upon  the 
wondrous  law,  which  all  nature  proclaims  Thine, 
are  impressed  with  these  evidences  of  Thy  all  em- 
bracing love  and  care  for  all  Thy  creatures.  Our 
hearts  o'erflow  with  thankfulness  to  Thee  and  our 
minds  are  impressed  with  the  example  of  Thy  won- 
derful Providence.  O,  that  we  may  learn  to  emu- 
late Thy  kindness,  that  Thy  loving  care  be  not  lost 
upon  us.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  whose  love 
supports  all  creation.  Amen.

10  EVENING   SERVICE 

(Congregation  Standing) 

(Deut.  vi,  4-9) 

HEAR,  O  Israel:  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord 
is  One. 

And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy 
might.  And  these  words,  which  I  command  thee 
this  day,  shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and  thou  shalt 
teach  them  diligently  unto  thy  children,  and  shalt 
talk  of  them  when  thou  sittest  in  thine  house,  and 
when  thou  walkest  by  the  way,  and  when  thou  liest 
down,  and  when  thou  risest  up.  And  thou  shalt 
bind  them  for  a  sign  upon  thine  hand,  and  they 
shall  be  for  frontlets  between  thine  eyes.  And 
thou  shalt  write  them  upon  the  door  posts  of  thy 
house,  and  upon  thy  gates. 

That  ye  may  remember  and  do  all  my  command- 
ments, and  be  holy  unto  your  God.  I  am  the  Lord 
your  God,  who  brought  you  out  of  the  land  of 
Egypt,  to  be  your  God: 

Choir: 
The  Lord  your  God  is  Truth.

EVENING   SERVICE 


Rabbi:    True  and  binding  is  all  this  upon  us. 

Cong.:  For  He  is  the  Lord,  our  God,  and  none 
other ;  and  we,  Israel,  are  His  people. 

Rabbi:  He  has  redeemed  us  from  the  tyranny  of 
kings. 

Cony.:  And  has  wrested  us  out  of  the  power  of 
oppressors. 

Rabbi:  He  hath  performed  wondrous  deeds,  be- 
yond search  and  without  number. 

Cong.:  He  has  fixed  our  souls  in  life  and  has  not 
permitted  us  to  slip. 

Rabbi:  He  wrought  wonders  for  us  in  the  land 
of  Egypt. 

Cong.:  And  brought  forth  His  people,  Israel, 
thence  to  everlasting  freedom. 

Rabbi:  He  led  His  people  through  the  paths  of 
the  sea. 

Cong.:  And  His  children  saw  His  might,  praised 
Him  and  acknowledged  His  sovereignty. 

Rabbi:  Even  as  it  is  written :  Moses  and  the  chil- 
dren of  Israel  sang  unto  Thee  a  new 
song  in  pious  exaltation,  saying,  all  of 
them, 

Choir  and  Congregation: 

Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  among  the  mighty,  O 
Lord !  Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  glorious  in  holiness, 
revered  in  praise,  working  wonders! 

Cantor: 

Thy  children  realized  Thy  sovereign  power  when 
Thou  didst  save  them  by  the  sea,  when  they  exult- 
antly exclaimed:  "This  is  my  God,"  and  declared: 

Choir: 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.

14  EVENING   SERVICE 

Cantor: 

And  it  is  said,  "For  the  Lord  hath  delivered  Jacob 
and  redeemed  him  from  the  hand  of  him  that  was 
stronger  than  he.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  who 
hast  redeemed  Israel." 

O  LORD,  our  God,  permit  us,  we  beseech  Thee,  to 
lie  down  this  night  in  peace  and  awake  on  the  mor- 
row to  life  and  health.  Spread  over  us  Thy  taber- 
nacle of  peace,  cause  us  to  be  led  by  Thy  good 
counsel,  and  send  us  salvation  for  the  sake  of  Thy 
holy  name.  Be  Thou  ever  our  shield  and  protector 
and  remove  from  us  all  danger,  harm  or  hurt, 
trouble  or  distress.  Suffer  not  sorrow  to  afflict  us, 
but  shelter  us  under  the  shadow  of  Thy  wing;  for 
Thou,  O  God,  art  our  Guardian  and  Deliverer; 
Thou  art  our  King,  merciful  and  gracious,  and 
enduring  forever.  Guard  then  our  going  out  and 
our  coming  in,  that  we  may  lead  a  life  of  happiness 
and  usefulness,  and  be  ever  surrounded  by  the 
blessing  of  peace.  Praised  be  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
extendest  a  protecting  arm  over  all  Thy  children. 
Amen. 

On  Sabbath  say  following: 
(Exodus  xxxi) 

And  the  children  of  Israel  shall  keep  the  Sab- 
bath, to  observe  the  Sabbath  throughout  their  gene- 
rations for  an  everlasting  covenant.  It  is  a  sign 
between  Me  and  the  children  of  Israel  for  ever. 

(Psalm  Ixxxf,  3-4) 

Blow  the  trumpet  in  the  new  moon,  in  the  time 
appointed,  on  our  solemn  feast  day,  for  this  was  a 
statute  for  Israel  and  an  ordinance  of  the  God  of 
Jacob.

MAGNIFIED  and  sanctified  be  His  great  name  in 
the  world  which  He  hath  created  according  to  His 
will.  May  He  establish  His  kingdom  during  your 
life  and  during  your  days  and  during  the  life  of  the

uttered  in  the  world.  So  say  ye  Amen. 

O  Lord,  open  Thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  Thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and 
God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  Thou  quick-

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest 
the  falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and 
keepest  Thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.

who    resembleth   Thee,   O    King,   who   killest   and 
quickenest,  and  causeth  salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  Thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea ,  faithful  art  Thou  to  quicken  the  dead. 
Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  Thy  name  is  holy,  and  the 
pious  praise  Thee  daily. 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  Thine 
awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with  a 
perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God, 
that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy  hand, 
and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy  name 
is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  Thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  Thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  Thee,  joy  to 
our  land,  gladness  to  our  city. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke, 
when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to 
pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  Thou  alone  over 
all  Thy  works,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Holy  Word, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O  Zion, 
unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord.

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

THOU  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  all 
peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy  unity 
and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name;  Thou 
hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments  and 
brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our  King,  and 
called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name. 

On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets. 

And  Thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our  God, 
[this  Sabbath  Day  and]  this  Day  of  Memorial,  a 
day  of  blowing  the  Shofar,  [on  Sabbath  substitute 
for  the  last  phrase — a  day  of  remembrance  of  blow- 
ing the  Shofar,  in  love]  ;  an  holy  convocation  as  a 
memorial  of  the  departure  from  Egypt. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers!  May  our  re- 
membrance rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before 
thee,  with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  and  of 
all  Thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  deliver- 
ance and  well-being,  grace,  loving  kindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Memorial. 
Remember  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our 
well-being;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save 
us  unto  life:  by  Thy  promise  of  salvation  and  mercy, 
spare  us  and  be  gracious  unto  us ;  have  mercy  upon 
us  and  save  us ;  for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  Thee, 
because  Thou  art  a  gracious  and  merciful  God  and 
King. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  reign  Thou  in 
Thy  glory  over  the  whole  universe,  and  be  exalted 
above  all  the  earth  in  Thine  honour,  and  shine  forth 
in  the  splendour  and  excellence  of  Thy  might  upon

EVENING   SERVICE 

all  the  inhabitants  of  Thy  world,  that  whatsoever 
hath  been  made  may  know  that  Thou  hast  made  it. 
and  whatsoever  hath  been  created  may  understand 
that  Thou  hast  created  it,  and  whatsoever  hath 
breath  in  its  nostrils  may  say,  The  Lord  God  of 
Israel  is  King,  and  His  dominion  ruleth  over  all. 
[Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  accept  our  rest.] 
Sanctify  us  by  Thy  commandments,  and  grant  our 
portion  in  Thy  Law;  satisfy  us  with  Thy  goodness, 
and  gladden  us  with  Thy  salvation  [and  in  Thy  love 
and  favour,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  us  inherit  Thy  holy 
Sabbath ;  and  may  Israel,  who  hallow  Thy  name, 
rest  thereon],  O  purify  our  hearts  to  serve  Thee 
in  truth,  for  Thou  art  God  in  Truth  and  Thy  word 
is  truth,  and  endureth  for  ever.  Blessed  art  Thou, 
O  Lord,  King  over  all  the  earth,  who  sanctifiest  [the 
Sabbath  and]  Israel  and  the  Day  of  Memorial. 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  Thy  people  Israel  and 
their  prayer;  and  may  the  service  of  Thy  people 
Israel  be  ever  acceptable  unto  Thee. 

Praised  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whom  alone  we 
worship  and  adore.  Amen. 

We  give  thanks  unto  Thee,  for  Thou  art  the  Lord 
our  God  and  the  God  of  our  fathers  for  ever  and 
ever ;  Thou  art  the  Rock  of  our  lives,  the  Shield  of 
our  salvation  through  every  generation.  We  will 
give  thanks  unto  Thee  and  declare  Thy  praise  for 
our  lives  which  are  committed  unto  Thy  hand,  and 
for  our  souls  which  are  in  Thy  charge,  and  for  Thy 
miracles,  which  are  daily  with  us,  and  for  Thy  won- 
ders and  Thy  benefits,  which  are  wrought  at  all 
times,  evening  morn  and  noon.  O  Thou  who  art 
all-good,  whose  mercies  fail  not;  Thou,  merciful 
Being,  whose  lovingkindness  never  ceaseth,  we  have 
ever  hoped  in  Thee.

24  EVENING   SERVICE 

And  for  all  these  favors,  O  our  King,  shall  Thy 
name  be  blessed  for  ever  and  ever. 

O  inscribe  all  the  children  of  Thy  covenant  for 
a  happy  life. 

May  all  the  living  pay  homage  unto  Thee,  and 
praise  Thy  name  in  truth,  O  Lord,  our  help  and 
salvation.  Blessed  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whose  name 
is  the  All-Good,  and  unto  whom  it  is  proper  to  give 
thanks.  Amen ! 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  loving 
kindness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Thy  people. 
JJless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us  together, 
with  the  light  of  Thy  countenance;  for  by  the  light 
of  Thy  countenance  Thou  hast  given  us,  O  Lord 
our  God,  the  Law  of  life,  loving  kindness  and  right- 
eousness, blessing,  mercy,  life  and  peace;  and  may 
it  be  good  in  Thy  sight  to  bless  Thy  people  Israel 
at  all  times  and  in  every  hour  with  Thy  peace. 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  before 
Thee,  we  and  all  Thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel, 
for  a  happy  life  and  for  peace.  Blessed  art  Thou, 
O  Lord,  who  makest  peace. 

Reader  and  Congregation  together: 

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my 
lips  from  speaking  guile;  and  to  such  as  curse  me 
let  my  soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all 
as  the  dust.  Open  my  heart  to  Thy  Law,  and  let 
my  soul  pursue  Thy  commandments.  If  any  design 
evil  against  me,  speedily  make  their  counsel  of  none 
effect,  and  frustrate  their  designs.  May  the  words 
of  my  mouth  and  the  meditation  of  my  heart  be 
acceptable  before  Thee.  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my 
Redeemer.  He  who  maketh  peace  in  His  high 
places,  may  He  make  peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel, 
and  say  ye,  Amen.

26  EVENING   SERVICE 

MOURNER'S   SERVICE 

Ye,  who  mourn  the  loss  of  departed  relatives,  and 
ye  who  commemorate  to-day  the  anniversary  of  the 
death  of  beloved  ones,  give  thanks  for  the  joys  and 
love  which  they  inspired  within  you  during  their 
life,  and  for  the  usefulness  which  you  developed 
while  you  still  enjoyed  their  association. 

Let  the  prayer  be  your  token  that  you  still  re- 
member your  departed  ones  and  that  you  honor 
their  remembrance  by  emulating  the  noble  deeds  of 
such  who,  while  living,  were  a  blessing  to  others. 

Rise  and  pray  with  us,  that  when  the  summons 
comes,  and  we  are  called  hence,  we  may  live  in  the 
memories  of  our  relatives  and  friends,  so  that,  even 
though  dead,  the  recollection  of  our  good  deeds 
may  survive  to  inspire  them  to  higher  virtues  and 
nobler  achievements.  But,  above  all,  let  us  pray 
that  we  do  so  mould  and  direct  our  every  word, 
thought  and  deed,  that  in  contemplating  our  latter 
end,  we  may  be  free  from  dread  and  terror;  that 
without  looking  forward  to  it,  we  may  be  ready, 
when  summoned  by  the  call  of  Our  Father,  to  return 
home — leaving  this  world  at  peace  with  ourselves 
and  our  fellowmen.  Amen.

30  EVENING   SERVICE 

IT  is  a  duty  incumbent  upon  us  to  praise  the 
Sovereign  Lord  of  the  Universe,  to  ascribe  great- 
ness to  Him  who  is  the  Creator  of  all.  Who  hath 
not  allowed  us  to  fall  into  the  errors  of  idolatry  and 
superstition  and  hath  caused  us  to  value  light  and 
truth,  which  have  become  our  priceless  heritage. 

(Congregation  Standing) 


FOR  He  hath  stretched  out  the  heavens  and  estab- 
lished the  earth,  and  the  habitation  of  His  glory  is 
exalted  above  all.  He  is  our  God  and  none  other. 
He  is  our  King  and  none  besides.  Even  as  it  is 
written  in  His  Law:  "Know  therefore  this  day 
and  consider  it  in  thine  heart  that  the  Lord  He  is 
God  in  heaven  above  and  upon  the  earth  beneath: 
and  there  is  none  else." 

WE  therefore  fix  our  hopes  on  Thee,  O  Lord  our 
God,  that  soon  we  may  behold  the  triumph  of  Thy 


FOR   THE    NEW   YEAR  31 

majesty,  when  evil  shall  pass  away  from  earth  and 
idolatry  be  for  ever  destroyed.  Then  shall  Thy 
kingdom  be  surely  established  in  the  world  and 
all  the  children  of  men  invoke  Thy  blessing.  That 
the  forces  of  wickedness  may  become  instruments 
of  good.  Then  will  all  the  inhabitants  of  Thy  world 
realize  and  know  that  to  Thee  alone  belongs  all 
worship  and  praise,  before  Thee  alone  will  they  then 
prostrate  themselves,  to  Thee  alone  pledge  their 

• 

fealty:  thus  universally  accepting  upon  themselves 
the  sovereignty  of  Thy  glorious  kingdom,  and  Thou 
wilt  reign  eternally  over  all;  for  Thine  is  the  king- 
dom, and  Thou  wilt  reign  gloriously  for  ever  and 
ever,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Law  :  "The  Lord  shall 
reign  for  ever  and  ever."  And  it  is  said  :  "And  the 
Lord  shall  be  King  over  all  the  earth  :  in  that  day 
shall  the  Lord  be  One  and  His  name  One."

MAGNIFIED  and  praised  be  the  living  God :  He  is, 
and  there  is  no  limit  in  time  unto  His  being. 

He  is  One,  and  there  is  no  unity  like  unto  His 
unit>  ;  inconceivable  is  He,  and  unending  is  His 
unity. 

He  hath  neither  bodily  form  nor  substance:  we 
can  compare  nought  unto  Him  in  His  holiness. 

He  was  before  anything  that  hath  been  created — 
even  the  first:  but  His  existence  had  no  beginning. 

Behold  He  is  the  Lord  ot  the  universe:  to  every 
creature  He  teacheth  His  greatness  and  His  sov- 
ereignty. 

The  rich  gift  of  His  prophecy  He  gave  unto  the 
men  of  His  choice,  in  whom  He  gloried. 

Theie  hath  never  yet  arisen  in  Israel  a  prophet 
like  Moses,  one  who  hath  beheld  His  similitude. 

The  Law  of  truth  God  gave  unto  His  people  by 
the  hand  of  the  prophet,  who  was  faithful  in  His 
house. 

God  will  not  alter  nor  change  His  Law  to  ever- 
lasting for  any  other. 

He  watcheth  and  knoweth  our  secret  thoughts: 
He  beholdeth  the  end  of  a  thing  before  it  existeth. 

He  bestoweth  lovingkindness  upon  "a  man  accord- 
ing to  his  work ;  He  giveth  to  the  wicked  evil  accord- 
ing to  his  wickedness. 

He  will  send  at  a  favorable  time  freedom  to  all 
men.  to  redeem  them  that  wait  for  the  end — Hi? 
salvation. 

Tn  the  abundance  of  His  lovingkindness  God  will 
quicken  the  dead.  Blessed  for  evermore  be  His 
glorious  name.

36  MORNING   SERVICE 

O  my  God,  the  soul  which  thou  gavest  me  is 
pure;  thou  didst  create  it,  thou  didst  form  it,  thou 
didst  breathe  it  into  me;  thou  preservest  it  within 
me;  and  thou  wilt  take  it  from  me,  but  wilt  surely 
keep  it  alive.  So  long  as  the  soul  is  within  me,  I  will 
give  thanks  unto  thee,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of 
my  fathers,  Sovereign  of  all  works,  Lord  of  all 
souls ! 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  freest  the  enslaved. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  spreadest  forth  the  earth  above  the 
waters. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  made  firm  the  steps  of  man. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  givest  strength  to  the  weary. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  removest  sleep  from  mine  eyes  and 
slumber  from  mine  eyelids.

And  may  it  be  Thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and 
God  of  our  fathers,  to  make  us  familiar  with  Thy 
Law,  and  to  make  us  cleave  to  Thy  commandments. 
O  lead  us  not  into  the  power  of  sin,  or  of  trangres- 
sion  of  iniquity,  or  of  temptation,  or  of  scorn:  let 
not  the  evil  inclination  have  sway  over  us :  keep  us 
far  from  a  bad  man  and  a  bad  companion :  make 
us  cleave  to  the  good  inclination  and  to  good  works : 
subdue  our  inclination  so  that  it  may  submit  itself 
unto  Thee;  and  let  us  obtain  this  day,  and  every 
day,  grace,  favour  and  mercy  in  Thine  eyes,  and  in 
the  eyes  of  all  who  behold  us ;  and  bestow  loving 
kindnesses  upon  us.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord, 
who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses  upon  all  creation. 

At  all  times  let  a  man  fear  God  as  well  in  private 
as  in  public,  acknowledge  the  truth,  and  speak  the 
truth  in  his  heart ;  and  let  him  rise  early  and  say : 

Sovereign  of  the  universe!  Not  because  of  our 
righteous  acts  do  we  lay  our  supplications  before 
Thee,  but  because  of  Thine  abundant  mercies.  What 
are  we?  What  is  our  life?  What  is  our  piety? 
What  our  righteousness?  What  our  helpfulness? 
What  our  strength?  What  our  might?  What  shall 
we  say  before  Thee,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers?  Are  not  all  the  mighty  men  as  nought 
before  Thee,  the  men  of  renown  as  though  they 
had  not  been,  the  wise  as  if  without  knowledge, 
and  the  men  of  understanding  as  if  without  discern- 
ment? For  most  of  their  works  are  void,  and  the 
days  of  their  lives  are  vanity  before  Thee,  and  the 
pre-emince  of  man  over  the  beast  is  nought,  for  all 
is  vanity.

who  speaketh  and  fulfilleth.  Blessed  be  He  who

our  God,  and  with  psalms  proclaim  our  loyalty  to 
Thee  our  King.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  and 
King  who  art  magnified  and  extolled  with  hymns. 

(Psalm  c.) 

Make  a  joyful  noise'  unto  the  Lord,  all  ye  lands. 

Serve  the  Lord  with  gladness:  come  before  his 
.presence  with  singing. 

Know  ye  that  the  Lord  he  is  God:  it  is  He  that 
hath  made  us,  and  not  we  ourselves ;  we  are  His 
people,  and  the  sheep  of  His  pasture. 

Enter  into  his  gates  with  thanksgiving,  and  into 
his  courts  with  praise:  be  thankful  unto  Him,  and 
bless  His  name. 

For  the  Lord  is  good;  His  mercy  is  everlasting; 
and  his  truth  endureth  to  all  generations.

A  SONG  FOR  THE  SABBATH 

Psalm  92. 

Thy  name,  O  Lord,  'tis  good  to  praise, 
And  in  Thine  honor  psalms  to  sing, 
In  strains  that  from  the  heart  arise 
In  tones  that  sound  .from  every  string 
Of  harp  or  lute  or  timbrel  sweet, 
That  shall  at  dawn  Thy  mercy  chant — 
At  night  Thy  faithfulness  relate. 
Thy  deeds,  O  Lord,  my  soul  enchant, 
Thy  handiwork  my  mind  enslaves ; 
Wondrous  great  are  Thy  works,  O  Lord- 
Profound  indeed  are  ail  Thy  thoughts. 
Yet,  those  who  are  coarse  will  never  know, 
Nor  thoughtless  ones  this  understand : 
Though  the  wicked  flourish  as  grass, 
And  evil  ones  spring  up  like  weeds, 
In  the  end  they  themselves  do  hurt — 
For  Thou'lt  remain  exalted,  Lord ; 
When  the  evil-doers  have  perished, 
When  Thy  deniers  low  are  laid 
And  sinful  ones  are  long  forgotten. 
But  do  Thou  high  exalt  my  horn ; 
Gladden  me  with  the  oil  of  joy; 
Direct  mine  eyes  upon  the  right, 
Even  tho'  many  against  me  rise. 
For,  if  oppressed,  I  cry  to  Thee 
Thou'lt  bend  Thine  ear  and  send  me  help ; 
Righteous  ones  as  palms  shall  flourish, 
As  mighty  cedars  strike  their  roots 
Planted  near  the  house  of  the  Lord, 
They  bud  in  the  courts  of  our  God ; 
Even  in  age  they  bud  afresh, 
•  And  are  green  and  sturdy  for  aye. 
Still  upright  God  I  sing  of  Thee, 
My  rock,  in  whom  there  is  no  harm.

(Psalm  Ixxxxi) 

HE  that  dwclleth  in  the  secret  place  of  the  most 
High  shall  abide  under  the  shadow  of  the  Almighty. 

1  will  say  of  the  Lord,  He  is  my  refuge  and  my 
fortress :  my  God ;  in  him  will  I  trust. 

Surely  he  shall  deliver  thee  from  the  snare  of 
the  fowler,  and  from  the  noisome  pestilence. 

He  shall  cover  thee  with  His  feathers,  and  under 
His  wings  shalt  thou  trust:  His  truth  shall  be  thy 
shield  and  buckler. 

Thou  shalt  not  be  afraid  for  the  terror  by  night ; 
nor  for  the  arrow  that  flieth  by  day ; 

Nor  for  the  pestilence  that  walketh  in  darkness; 
nor  for  the  destruction  that  wasteth  at  noonday. 

A  thousand  shall  fall  at  thy  side,  and  ten  thousand 
at  thy  right  hand ;  but  it  shall  not  come  nigh  thee. 

Only  with  thine  eyes  shalt  thou  behold  and  see 
the  reward  of  the  wicked. 

Because  thou  hast  made  the  Lord,  which  is  my 
refuge,  even  the  most  High,  thy  habitation; 

There  shall  no  evil  befall  thee,  neither  shall  any 
plague  come  nigh  thy  dwelling. 

For  he  shall  give  His  angels  charge  over  thee, 
to  keep  thee  in  all  thy  ways. 

They  shall  bear  thee  up  in  their  hands,  lest  thou 
dash  thy  foot  against  a  stone. 

Thou  shalt  tread  upon  the  lion  and  adder;  the 
young  lion  and  the  dragon  shalt  thou  trample  under 
feet. 

Because  he  hath  set  his  love  upon  Me,  therefore 
will  I  deliver  him :  I  will  set  him  on  high,  because 
he  hath  known  My  name. 

He  shall  call  upon  Me,  and  I  will  answer  him: 
I  will  be  with  him  in  trouble;  I  will  deliver  him, 
and  honour  him. 

With  long  life  will  I  satisfy  him,  and  shew  him 
my  salvation.

46  MORNING  SERVICE 

(Psalm  cxlv) 

I  WILL  extol  thee,  my  God,  OKing;  and  I  will 
bless  Thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Every  day  will  I  bless  Thee;  and  I  will  praise 
Thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  greatly  to  be  praised ;  and 
His  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  praise  Thy  works  to  an- 
other, and  shall  declare  Thy  mighty  acts. 

I  will  speak  of  the  glorious  honour  of  Thy 
majesty,  and  of  Thy  wondrous  works. 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  Thy  terrible 
acts ;  and  I  will  declare  Thy  greatness. 

They  shall  abundantly  utter  the  memory  of  Thy 
great  goodness,  and  shall  sing  of  Thy  righteousness. 

The  Lord  is  gracious,  and  full  of  compassion ; 
slow  to  anger,  and  of  great  mercy. 

The  Lord  is  good  to  all :  and  His  tender  mercies 
are  over  all  His  works. 

All  Thy  works  shall  praise  Thee,  O  Lord ;  and 
Thy  saints  shall  bless  Thee. 

They  shall  speak  of  the  glory  of  Thy  kingdom", 
and  talk  of  Thy  power; 

To  make  known  to  the  sons  of  men  His  mighty 
acts,  and  the  glorious  majesty  of  His  kingdom. 

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  Thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  generations. 

The  Lord  upholdeth  all  that  fall,  and  raiseth  up 
all  those  that  be  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  Thee ;  and  Thou  givest 
them  their  meat  in  due  season. 

Thou  openest  Thine  hand,  and  satisfies!  the  de- 
sire of  every  living  thing. 

The  Lord  is  righteous  in  all  His  ways,  and  holy 
in  all  His  works. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon 
Him,  to  all  that  call  upon  Him  in  truth.

48  MORNING  SERVICE 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  Him: 
He  also  will  hear  their  cry,  and  will  save  them. 

The  Lord  preserveth  all  them  that  love  Him:  but 
all  the  wicked  will  He  destroy. 

My  mouth  shall  speak  the  praise  of  the  Lord: 
and  let  all  flesh  bless  His  holy  name  for  ever  and 
ever.  But  we  will  bless  the  Lord  from  this  time 
forth  and  for  evermore.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  for  evermore.  Blessed  be 
the  Lord  God,  the  God  of  Israel,  who  alone  doeth 
wondrous  things :  and  blessed  be  His  glorious  name 
for  ever;  and  let  the  whole  earth  be  filled  with  His 
glory.  So  say  ye  Amen. 

The  breath  of  every  living  being  shall  bless  Thy 
name,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  the  spirit  of  all  flesh 
shall  continually  glorify  and  exalt  Thy  memorial, 
O  our  King;  from  everlasting  to  everlasting  thou 
art  God;  and  beside  Thee  we  have  no  King 
who  redeemeth  and  saveth.  Thou  didst  redeem 
us  from  Egypt,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  didst 
release  us  from  the  house  of  bondage;  during 
famine  Thou  didst  feed  us,  and  didst  sus- 
tain us  in  plenty ;  from  the  sword  Thou  didst  rescue 
us,  from  pestilence  Thou  didst  save  us,  and  from 
sore  and  lasting  diseases  Thou  didst  deliver  us. 
Hitherto  Thy  tender  mercies  have  helped  us,  and 
Thy  lovingkindnesses  have  not  left  us:  forsake  us 
not,  O  Lord  our  God,  for  ever.  Therefore  the 
limbs  which  Thou  hast  spread  forth  upon  us,  and 
the  spirit  and  breath  which  Thou  hast  breathed  into 
our  nostrils,  and  the  tongue  which  Thou  hast  set

in  our  mouths,  lo  they  shall  thank,  bless,  praise, 
glorify,  extol,  reverence,  hallow  and  assign  king- 
ship to  Thy  name,  O  our  King.  For  every  mouth 
shall  give  thanks  unto  Thee,  and  every  tongue  shall 
pledge  fealty  unto  Thee ;  every  knee  shall  bend 
before  Thee,  and  whatsoever  is  lofty  shall  prostrate 
itself  before  Thee;  all  hearts  shall  fear  Thee,  and 
our  innermost  soul  shall  sing  unto  Thy  name,  O 
God,  great,  mighty,  and  awful,  most  high  God, 
Possessor  of  heaven  and  earth ;  the  King,  who 
sitteth  upon  a  high  and  lofty  throne. 

He  who  inhaBiteth  eternity,  exalted  and  holy  is 
his  name;  and  it  is  written,  Exult  in  the  Lord,  O 
ye  righteous ;  praise  is  seemly  for  the  upright. 

By  the  mouth  of  the  upright  Thou  shalt  be 
praised,  by  the  words  of  the  righteous  Thou  shalt 
be  blessed,  by  the  tongue  of  the  loving  ones  Thou 
shalt  be  extolled,  and  in  the  midst  of  the  holy 
Thou  shalt  be  hallowed,  for  unto  Thee,  O  Lord  our 
God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  song  and  praise  are 
becoming,  hymn  and  psalm.  » 

(Congregation  Standing) 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  God  and  King, 
great  in  praises,  God  of  thanksgivings,  Lord  of 
wonders,  who  makest  choice  of  song  and  psalm,  O 
King  and  God,  the  life  of  all  worlds. 


Magnified  and  sanctified  be  His  great  name  in  the 
world  which  He  hath  created  according  to  His 
will.  May  He  establish  His  kingdom  during  your 
life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of 
the  whole  household  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  in 
a  near  time !  So  say  ye,  Amen. 

(Response)  Let  His  great  name  be  blessed  for 
ever  and  unto  all  eternity.

(Deut.  vi,  4-9) 

HEAR,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord 
is  One. 

BLESSED  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom 
is  for  ever  and  ever. 

And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy 
might.  And  these  words,  which  I  command  thee 
this  day,  shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and  thou  shalt 
teach  them  diligently  unto  thy  children,  and  shalt 
talk  of  them  when  thou  sittest  in  thine  house,  and 
when  thou  walkest  by  the  way,  and  when  thou  liest 
down,  and  when  thou  risest  up.  And  thou  shalt 
bind  them  for  a  sign  upon  thine  hand,  and  they 
shall  be  for  frontlets  between  thine  eyes.  And 
thou  shalt  write  them  upon  the  door  posts  of  thy 
house,  and  upon  thy  gates. 

That  ye  may  remember  and  do  all  my  command- 
ments, and  be  holy  unto  your  God.  I  am  the  Lord 
your  God,  who  brought  you  out  of  the  land  of 
Egypt,  to  be  your  God:

fathers'  King,  our  Redeemer,  the  Redeemer  of  our

Deliverer  and  Rescuer  from  everlasting,  such  is  Thy 
name;  there  is  no  God  beside  Thee. 

True  it  is  that  Thou  art  indeed  the  first  and 
Thou  art  the  last,  and  beside  Thee  we  have  no 
King,  Redeemer  and  Saviour.  From  Egypt  Thou 
didst  redeem  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  from  the 
house  of  bondmen  Thou  didst  deliver  us.  Where- 
fore the  beloved  praised  and  extolled  God,  and 
offered  hymns,  songs,  praises,  blessings  and  thanks- 
givings to  the  King  and  God,  who  liveth  and  en- 
dureth ;  who  is  high  and  exalted,  great  and  revered ; 
who  bringeth  low  the  haughty,  and  raiseth  up  the 
lowly,  leadeth  forth  the  prisoners,  delivereth  the 
meek,  helpeth  the  poor,  and  answereth  his  people 
when  they  cry  unto  Him ;  even  praises  to  the  Most 
High  God,  blessed  is  he,  and  ever  to  be  blessed. 
Moses  and  the  children  of  Israel  sang  a  song  unto 
Thee  with  great  joy,  saying,  all  of  them,

Reader: 

With  a  new  song  the  redeemed  people  offered 
praise  unto  Thy  name  at  the  sea  shore;  they  all 
gave  thanks  in  unison,  and  proclaimed  Thy  sover- 
eignty, and  said,

O  Rock  of  Israel,  arise  to  the  help  of  Israel.  Our 
Redeemer,  the  Lord  of  hosts  is  his  name,  the  Holy 
One  of  Israel.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hast 
redeemed  Israel. 

The  following  Prayer  (Amidah)  is  said  standing. 

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  Thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and 
God  of  our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God 
of  Isaac,  and  God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and

lovingkindnesses,  and  possesses!  all  things ;  who  re- 
memberest  the  pious  deeds  of  the  patriarchs,  and  in 
love  wilt  bring  redemption  to  their  children's  child-

Choir: 

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest  in 
life,  and  inscribe  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  Thine 
own  sake,  O  living  God. 

O  King,   Helper,   Saviour  and   Shield.     Blessed" 
art    Thou,    O    Lord,    the    Shield    of     Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  Thou 
(juickenest  the  dead,  Thou  art  mighty  to  save. 
Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest 
the  falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and 
keepest  Thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust. 
Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and 
who  resembleth  Thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and 
quickenest,  and  causest  salvation  to  spring  forth?

64  MORNING   SERVICE 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  Thine 
awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with  a 
perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God, 
that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy  hand, 
and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy  name 
is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  Thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  Thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  Thee,  joy  to 
our  land,  gladness  to  our  city. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke, 
when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to 
pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  Thou  alone  over 
all  Thy  works,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Holy  Word, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O  Zion, 
unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

THOU  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  all 
peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy  unity 
and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name;  Thou 
hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments  and 
brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our  King,  and 
called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name.

And  Thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our  God, 
[this  Sabbath  Day  and]  this  Day  of  Memorial,  a 
day  of  blowing  the  Shofar,  [on  Sabbath  substitute 
for  the  last  phrase — a  day  of  remembrance  of  blow-

all  Thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  deliver- 
ance and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Memorial. 
Remember  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our 
well-being ;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save 
us  unto  life:  by  Thy  promise  of  salvation  and  mercy, 
spare  us  and  be  gracious  unto  us ;  have  mercy  upon 
us  and  save  us;  for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  Thee,

King.

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  reign  Thou  in 
Thy  glory  over  the  whole  universe,  and  be  exalted 
above  all  the  earth  in  Thine  honour,  and  shine  forth 
in  the  splendour  and  excellence  of  Thy  might  upon 
all  the  inhabitants  of  Thy  world,  that  whatsoever 
hath  been  made  may  know  that  Thou  hast  made  it, 
and  whatsoever  hath  been  created  may  understand 
that  Thou  hast  created  it,  and  whatsoever  hath 
breath  in  its  nostrils  may  say,  The  Lord  God  of 
Israel  is  King,  and  His  dominion  ruleth  over  all. 
[Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  accept  our  rest.] 
Sanctify  us  by  Thy  commandments,  and  grant  our 
portion  in  Thy  Law ;  satisfy  us  with  Thy  goodness, 
and  gladden  us  with  Thy  salvation  [and  in  Thy  love 
and  favour,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  us  inherit  Thy  holy

in  truth,  for  Thou  art  God  in  Truth  and  Thy  word 
is  truth,  and  endureth  for  ever.  Blessed  art  Thou, 
O  Lord,  King  over  all  the  earth,  who  sanctifiest  [the

give  thanks  unto  Thee  and  declare  Thy  praise  for 
our  lives  which  are  committed  unto  Thy  hand,  and 
for  our  souls  which  are  in  Thy  charge,  and  for  Thy 
miracles,  which  are  daily  with  us,  and  for  Thy  won- 
ders and  Thy  benefits,  which  are  wrought  at  all 
times,  evening,  morn  and  noon.  O  Thou  who  art 
all-good,  whose  mercies  fail  not;  Thou,  merciful 
Being,  whose  lovingkindness  never  ceaseth,  we  have 
ever  hoped  in  Thee. 

And  for  all  these  favors,  O  our  King,  shall  Thy 
name  be  blessed  for  ever  and  ever. 

O  inscribe  all  the  children  of  Thy  covenant  for 
a  happy  life. 

May  all  the  living  pay  homage  unto  Thee,  and 
praise  Thy  name  in  truth,  O  Lord,  our  help  and 
salvation.  Blessed  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whose  name 
is  the  All-Good,  and  unto  whom  it  is  proper  to  give 
thanks.  Amen !

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with 
the  three-fold  blessing  of  Thy  Law  written  by  the 
hand  of  Moses  Thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by 
Aaron  and  his  sons,  the  priests,  Thy  holy  people, 
as  it  is  said,  The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee: 
the  Lord  make  His  face  shine  upon  thee,  and  be 
gracious  unto  thee :  the  Lord  turn  His  face  unto 
th«e,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  lovingkind- 
ness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel,  thy 
people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us 
together,  with  the  light  of  Thy  countenance ;  for  by 
the  light  of  Thy  countenance  Thou  hast  given  us, 
O  Lord  our  God,  the  Law  of  life,  lovingkindness 
and  righteousness,  blessing,  mercy,  life  and  peace; 
and  may  it  be  good  in  Thy  sight,  to  bless  Thy  peo- 
ple Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every  hour  with  Thy 
peace. 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  stft-

fore Thee,  we  and  all  Thy  people  the  house  of

74  MORNING   SERVICE 

READING  OF  THE  LAW  FOR  THE 
NEW  YEAR 


There  is  none  like  unto  Thee  among  the  mighty, 
O  Lord;  and  there  are  no  works  like  unto  Thine. 
Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  Thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  eternity.  The 
Lord  reigneth;  the  Lord  hath  reigned;  the  Lord 
shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  The  Lord  will  give 
strength  unto  His  people;  the  Lord  will  bless  His 
people  with  peace. 

The  Ark  is  Opened. 

(Congregation  Standing) 

And  it  came  to  pass,  when  the  ark  set  forward, 
that  Moses  said,  Rise  up,  O  Lord,  and  Thine 
enemies  shall  be  scattered,  and  they  that  hate  Thee 
shall  flee  before  Thee.  For  out  of  Zion  shall  go 
forth  the  Law,  and  the  word  of  the  Lord  from 
Jerusalem. 

The  Reader  takes  the  Scroll  of  the  Law,  and  says: 

i 

Blessed  be  He  who  in  His  holiness  gave  the  Law 
to  his  people  Israel. 

Said  by  Reader  and  repeated  by  Choir  and 
Congregation: 

The  Lord,  the  Lord  is  a  merciful  and  gracious 
God,  slow  to  anger  and  abounding  in  lovingkindness 
and  truth;  keeping  lovingkindness  for  thousands, 
forgiving  iniquity  and  transgression  and  sin.

76  MORNING   SERVICE 

SILENT  PRAYER. 

Father  of  all  mercies!  I  humbly  pray  Thee 
that  thou  wilt  grant  me  strength  and  wisdom  in 
the  pursuit  of  my  vocation,  that  I  may  be  enabled 
to  sustain  myself  and  my  dear  ones  in  honor. 
May  the  result  of  my  labors  bring  contentment 
and  the  enjoyment  of  that  which  is  lawful  and 
right. 

Let  not  me  or  mine  be  dependent  upon  the 
bounty  of  our  fellow  creatures,  but  sustain  us 
from  Thy  bountiful  hand,  which  Thou  openest  to 
satisfy  the  needs  of  all  living. 

• 

May  it  be  Thy  will,  O  God,  that  I  shall  per- 
form only  such  deeds  as  are  worthy  in  Thy  sight, 
and  that  my  way  in  life  shall  be  upright  before 
Thee.  Guard  me  from  evil  and  shield  me  from 
temptation.  May  the  words  of  my  mouth  and 
the  meditations  of  my  heart,  be  acceptable  before 
Thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer. 
Amen. 


FOR  THE   NEW   YEAR 

RABBI'S  PRAYER  BEFORE  THE 
ARK. 

Almighty  Father!  Sovereign  of  the  universe! 
We  reverently  bow  before  Thee  and  the  law 
which  Thou  hast  given  us,  and  pray  Thee  so  to 
incline  our  hearts  to  obey  Thy  commands,  that 
we  may  learn  to  have  faith  in  Thee  alone.  For 
not  in  man  do  we  put  our  trust;  nor  on  fame  or 
wealth  do  we  rely.  Our  only  hope  is  in  Thee, 
who  art  the  God  of  truth,  whose  law  is  truth, 
and  whose  prophets  are  prophets  of  truth,  and 
who  doest  all  things  in  goodness  and  in  truth. 

May  it  be  Thy  will  to  open  our  hearts  to  under- 
stand Thy  law,  so  that  we  may  find  comfort  and 
consolation  on  this  New  Year  and  that  the  as- 
surance of  forgiveness  and  salvation  may  sustain 
us.  Amen. 


MORNING   SERVICE 

Reader  and  Congregation: 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is 
One. 

Reader  and  Congregation: 

One  is  our  God ;  great  is  our  Lord ;  holy  is  His 
name. 


Reader: 

Magnify  the  Lord  with  me,  and  let  us  exalt  His 
name  together. 

Reader  and  Congregation:

and  the  glory,  and  the  victory,  and  the  majesty : 

i 

for  all  that  is  in  the  heaven  and  in  the  earth  is 
Thine;  Thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  kingdom,  and  the 
supremacy  as  head  over  all.  Exalt  ye  the  Lord  our 
God,  and  worship  at  his  footstool:  holy  is  He. 

The  Rabbi  elevates  the  Scroll  of  the  Law  and  says: 

"In  this  scroll  is  contained  the  Law  which  Moses 
set  before  the  Children  of  Israel.  It  is  the  inherit- 
ance of  the  congregation  of  Jacob."

86  MORNING   SERVICE 

TO  BE  READ  ON  THE  FIRST  DAY 
(i  Samuel  ii,  i-n) 

AND  Hannah  prayed,  and  said,  My  heart  re- 
joiceth  in  the  Lord,  mine  horn  is  exalted  in  the 
Lord :  my  mouth  is  enlarged  over  mine  enemies ; 
because  I  rejoice  in  Thy  salvation. 

There  is  none  holy  as  the  Lord :  for  there  is  none 
beside  Thee :  neither  is  there  any  rock  like  our  God. 

Talk  no  more  so  exceeding  proudly;  let  not  ar- 
rogancy  come  out  your  mouth:  for  the  Lord  is  a 
God  of  knowledge,  and  by  Him  actions  are  weighed. 

The  bows  of  the  mighty  men  are  broken,  and 
they  that  stumbled  are  girded  with  strength. 

They  that  were  full  have  hired  out  themselves  for 
bread ;  and  they  that  were  hungry  ceased :  so  that 
the  barren  hath  born  seven ;  and  she  that  hath  many 
children  is  waxed  feeble. 

The  Lord  killeth,  and  maketh  alive:  he  bringeth 
down  to  the  grave,  and  bringeth  up. 

The  Lord  maketh  poor,  and  maketh  rich:  he 
bringeth  low,  and  lifteth  up. 

He  raiseth  up  the  poor  out  of  the  dust,  and 
lifteth  up  the  beggar  from  the  dunghill,  to  set  them 
among  princes,  and  to  make  them  inherit  the  throne 
of  glory :  for  the  pillars  of  the  earth  are  the  Lord's, 
and  he  hath  set  the  world  upon  them. 

He  will  keep  the  feet  of  his  saints,  and  the  wicked 
shall  be  silent  in  darkness ;  for  by  strength  shall  no 
man  prevail. 


FOR   THE    NEW    YEAR 

The  adversaries  of  the  Lord  shall  be  broken  to 
pieces;  out  of  heaven  shall  he  thunder  upon  them: 
the  Lord  shall  judge  the  ends  of  the  earth ;  and  he 
shall  give  strength  unto  his  king,  and  exalt  the  horn 
of  his  anointed. 

And  Elkanah  went  to  Ramah  to  his  house.  And 
the  child  did  minister  unto  the  Lord  before  Eli  the 
priest. 

TO  BE  READ  ON  THE  SECOND  DAY 
(Nehemiah  viii.) 

AND  all  the  people  gathered  themseives  together 
as  one  man  into  the  street  that  was  before  the 
water  gate ;  and  they  spake  unto  Ezra  the  scribe  to 
bring  the  book  of  the  law  of  Moses,  which  the 
Lord  had  commanded  to  Israel. 

And  Ezra  the  priest  brought  the  law  before  the 
congregation  both  of  men  and  women,  and  all  that 
could  hear  with  understanding,  upon  the  first  day 
of  the  seventh  month. 

And  he  read  therein  before  the  street  that  was 
before  the  water  gate  from  the  morning  until  mid- 
day, before  the  men  and  the  women,  and  those  that 
could  understand ;  and  the  ears  of  all  the  people 
were  attentive  unto  the  book  of  the  law. 

And  Ezra  opened  the  book  in  the  sight  of  all  the 
people;  (for  he  was  above  all  the  people;)  and 
when  he  opened  it,  all  the  people  stood  up : 


MORNING   SERVICE 

And  Ezra  blessed  the  Lord,  the  great  God.  And 
all  the  people  answered,  AMEN,  AMEN,  with  lifting 
up  their  hands:  and  they  bowed  their  heads,  and 
worshipped  the  Lord  with  their  faces  to  the  ground. 

So  they  read  in  the  book  in  the  law  of  God  dis- 
tinctly, and  gave  the  sense,  and  caused  them  to 
understand  the  reading. 

And  Nehemiah,  which  is  the  Tirshatha,  and 
Ezra  the  priest  the  scribe,  and  the  Levites  that 
taught  the  people,  said  unto  all  the  people,  This 
day  is  holy  unto  the  Lord  your  God;  mourn  not, 
nor  weep.  For  all  the  people  wept,  when  they 
heard  the  words  of  the  law. 

Then  he  said  unto  them,  Go  your  way,  eat  the 
fat,  and  drink  the  sweet,  and  send  portions  unto 
them  for  whom  nothing  is  prepared :  for  this  day 
is  holy  unto  our  Lord :  neither  be  ye  sorry ;  for  the 
joy  of  the  Lord  is  your  strength. 

So  the  Levites  stilled  all  the  people,  saying,  Hold 
your  peace,  for  the  day  is  holy ;  neither  be  ye 
grieved. 

.  And  all  the  people  went  their  way  to  eat,  and  to 
drink,  and  to  send  portions,  and  to  make  great 
mirth,  because  they  had  understood  the  words  that 
were  declared  unto  them. 

And  on  the  second  day  were  gathered  the  chief 
of  the  fathers,  of  all  the  people,  the  priests,  and  the 
Levites.  unto  Ezra  the  scribe,  even  to  understand 
the  words  of  the  law.

God  is  gone  up  with  a  shout,  the  Lord  with  the 
sound  of  a  trumpet. 

Sing  praises  to  God,  sing  praises  :  sing  praises

O  Lord,  open  them  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall

Blessed  art  thoti,  O  Lord  our  God  and 
God  of  our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God 
of  Isaac,  and  God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and

love  wilt  bring  redemption  to  their  children's  child-

O  King,  Helper,  Saviour  and  Shield.  Blessed

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  Thoii 
quickenest  the  dead,  Thou  art  mighty  to  save. 
Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest 
the  falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and 
keepest  Thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust. 
Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and 
who  resembleth  Thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and 
quickenest,  and  causest  salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  Thy  creatures  unto  life?

Reader  and  Congregation: 

And  so  may  sanctification  ascend  unto  Thee ; 
for  Thou  art  our  God,  a  king  of  pardon  and  for- 
giveness. 

We  will  ascribe  holiness  to  the  sanctity  of 
this  day,  for  it  is  one  of  reverence  and  awe. 
Thereon  is  Thy  dominion  exalted,  Thy  throne 
established  in  mercy  and  Thou  abidest  in  truth. 
Verily  it  is  Thou  alone  who  art  judge  and  arbiter, 
who  knowest  and  art  witness ;  Thou  writest 
down  and  settest  the  seal,  Thou  recordest  and 
tellest ;  yea,  Thou  rememberest  forgotten  things. 
Thou  unf oldest  the  records,  and  the  deeds  therein 
inscribed  proclaim  themselves ;  for  lo !  the  seal  of 
every  man's  hand  is  thereto  set. 

And  when  the  great  trumpet  is  sounded,  then  the 
still  small  voice  shall  be  heard ;  the  angels  be 
dismayed  and  fear  and  trembling  seize  hold  on 
them,  as  they  proclaim :  BEHOLD  THE  DAY 
OF  JUDGMENT.  For  even  the  hosts  of  heaven 
are  arraigned  in  judgment,  since  in  Thine  eyes 
they  are  not  immaculate ;  and  all  who  enter  the 
world  Thou  causest  to  pass  before  Thee  as  sheep. 

As  a  shepherd  taketh  reckoning  of  his  flock, 
causing  them  to  pass  beneath  his  crook,  so  dost 
Thou  cause  to  pass,  and  number  and  visit  every 
living  soul,  fixing  the  limit  of  every  creature's  life 
and  appointing  their  destiny. 

Who  shall  live,  and  who  shall  die,  who  at  life's 
limit,  and  who  before  it ;  who  shall  have  repose 
and  who  unrest ;  who  shall  enjoy  comfort  and 
who  shall  be  harassed ;  whom  poverty  shall  op- 
press and  who  shall  be  rich  in  spirit ;  who  shall 
lower  his  own  dignity  and  who  shall  be  "honored 
of  men.

But  repentance,  prayer  and  charity  avert  the 
evil  decree. 

As  is  Thy  name  sublime,  so  is  Thy  glory.  Thou 
art  slow  to  anger,  and  eager  to  pardon.  Thou 
desirest  not  the  death  of  Thy  creatures  but  that 
they  should  amend  their  ways  and  live ;  and  to 
their  dying  day  Thou  holdest  forth  hope  to  them 
that  they  may  return  and  be  received  of  Thee. 

Truly  Thou  art  their  creator;  thou  knowest 
their  nature  and  realisest  that  they  are  but  mor- 
tal. As  for  man,  he  riseth  from  the  dust  and 
returneth  unto  dust;  he  imperils  his  life  to  gain 
sustenance ;  he  is  like  unto  the  pitcher  destined 
to  be  broken ;  as  grass  he  withereth,  as  a  flower 
he  fadeth,  as  a  cloud  he  vanisheth,  as  wind  he 
subsideth,  as  flying  dust  he  scattereth,  and  as  a 
dream  he  passeth  away.

102  MORNING   SERVICE 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  Thine 
awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with  a 
perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God, 
that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy  hand, 
and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy  name 
is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast  created.

to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  Thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  Thee,  joy  to 
our  land,  gladness  to  our  city. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke, 
when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to 
pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  Thou  alone  over 
all  Thy  works,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Holy  Word, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O  Zion, 
unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

THOU  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  all 
peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy  unity 
and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name;  Thou 
hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments  and 
brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our  King,  and 
called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name.

104  MORNING  SERVICE 

And  Thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our  God, 
[this  Sabbath  Day  and]  this  Day  of  Memorial,  a 
day  of  blowing  the  Shofar,  [on  Sabbath  substitute 
for  the  last  phrase — a  clay  of  remembrance  of  blow- 
ing the  Shofar,  in  love]  ;  an  holy  convocation  as  a 
memorial  of  the  departure  from  Egypt. 

On  Sabbath  say: 

(They  that  keep  the  Sabbath  and  call  it  a  de- 
light shall  rejoice  in  Thy  kingdom ;  the  people 
that  hallow  the  seventh  day,  even  all  of  them 
shall  be  satiated  and  delighted  with  Thy  good- 
ness, seeing  that  Thou  didst  find  pleasure  in  the 
seventh  day,  and  didst  hallow  it ;  Thou  didst  call 
it  the  desirable  of  days,  in  remembrance  of  the 
creation.) 

The  Ark  is  opened;  the  Congregation  rise. 

It  is  a  duty  incumbent  upon  us  to  praise  the 
Sovereign  Lord  of  the  universe,  to  ascribe  great- 
ness to  Him  who  is  the  creator  of  all ;  who  has 
given  us  His  law,  and  has  assured  us  salvation 
through  faith  in  Him. 

Reader  and  Congregation  while  kneeling  doum: 
We  bend  the  knee  and  reverently  acknowledge 
Thee, 

(Rising.) 

who  art  King  of  Kings,  the  Holy  One,  Blessed 
be  He. 

For  He  hath  stretched  out  the  heavens  and 
established  the  earth,  and  the  habitation  of  His 
glory  is  exalted  above  all.  He  is  our  God  and 
none  other.  He  is  our  king  and  none  besides.

106  MORNING   SERVICE 

Even  as  it  is  written  in  His  law:  "Know  there- 
fore this  day  and  consider  it  in  thine  heart,  that 
the  Lord  He  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon 
the  earth  beneath :  and  there  is  none  else." 

(The  Ark  is  closed,  and  Congregation  seated.) 

We  therefore  fix  our  hopes  on  Thee,  O  Lord 
our  God,  that  soon  we  may  behold  the  triumph 
of  Thy  majesty,  when  evil  shall  pass  away  from 
earth  and  idolatry  be  for  ever  destroyed.  Then 
shall  Thy  kingdom  be  surely  established  in  the 
world,  and  all  the  children  of  men  invoke  Thy 
blessing.  That  the  forces  of  wickedness  may  be- 
come instruments  of  good.  Then  will  all  the 
inhabitants  of  Thy  world  realize  and  know  that 
to  Thee  alone  belongs  all  worship  and  praise, 
before  Thee  alone  will  they  then  prostrate  them- 
selves, to  Thee  alone  pledge  their  fealty :  thus 
universally  accepting  upon  themselves,  the 
sovereignty  of  Thy  glorious  kingdom,  and  Thou 
wilt  reign  eternally  over  all ;  for  Thine  is  the 
kingdom,  and  Thou  wilt  reign  gloriously  for  ever 
and  ever. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  reign  Thou  in 
Thy  glory  over  the  whole  universe,  and  be  exalted 
above  all  the  earth  in  Thine  honour,  and  shine  forth 
in  the  splendour  and  excellence  of  Thy  might  upon 
all  the  inhabitants  of  Thy  world,  that  whatsoever 
hath  been  made  may  know  that  Thou  hast  made  it. 
and  whatsoever  hath  been  created  may  understand 
that  Thou  hast  created  it,  and  whatsoever  hath 
breath  in  its  nostrils  may  say,  The  Lord  God  of 
Israel  is  King,  and  His  dominion  ruleth  over  all.

Sabbath;  and  may  Israel,  who  hallow  Thy  name, 
rest  thereon].  O  purify  our  hearts  to  serve  Thee 
in  trutn,  for  Thou  art  God  in  Truth  and  Thy  word 
is  truth,  and  endureth  for  ever.  Blessed  art  Thou, 
O  Lord,  King  over  all  the  earth,  who  sanctifiest  [the

If  we  supplicate  Thee  as  children,  have  mercy 
upon  us,  as  a  father  hath  mercy  upon  His  chil-

until  Thou  shalt  be  gracious  unto  us,  and  send 
forth  our  judgment  as  the  light. 

Thou  rememberest  what  was  wrought  from

110  MORNING   SERVICE 

every  deed  that  hath  been  done :  not  a  creature 
is  concealed  from  Thee:  all  things  are  manifest 
and  known  unto  Thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  who 
lookest  and  seest  to  the  end  of  all  generations. 
For  Thou  wilt  bring  on  the  appointed  time  of 
memorial  when  every  spirit  and  soul  shall  be 
visited,  and  the  multitudinous  works  be  remem- 
bered with  the  innumerable  throng  of  Thy 
creatures.  From  the  beginning  Thou  didst  make 
this  Thy  purpose  known,  and  from  aforetime 
Thou  didst  disclose  it.  This  day,  on  which  was 
the  beginning  of  Thy  work,  is  a  memorial  of  the 
first  day,  for  it  is  a  statute  for  Israel,  a  decree 
of  the  God  of  Jacob.  Thereon  also  sentence  is 
pronounced  upon  countries, — which  of  them  is 
destined  to  the  sword  and  which  to  peace,  which 
to  famine  and  which  to  plenty ;  and  each  sepa- 
rate creature  is  visited  thereon,  and  recorded  for 
life  or  for  death.  Who  is  not  visited  on  this 
day?  For  the  remembrance  of  every  creature 
cometh  before  Thee,  each  man's  deeds  and  de^- 
tiny,  his  works  and  ways,  his  thoughts  and 
schemes,  his  imaginings  and  achievements. 
Happy  is  the  man  who  forgetteth  Thee  not,  and 
the  son  of  man  who  strengtheneth  himself  in 
Thee ;  for  they  that  seek  Thee  shall  never  stum- 
ble, neither  shall  any  be  put  to  shame  who  trust 
in  Thee.  Yea,  the  remembrance  of  all  works 
cometh  before  Thee,  and  Thou  enquirest  into 
the  doings  of  them  all. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  let  us 
be  remembered  by  Thee  for  good:  send  us  sal- 
vation and  mercy  from  Thy  heavens;  and  re- 
member unto  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the  covenant

Fulfil  unto  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the  word  in

through  the  hand  of  Moses  Thy  servant,  from 
the  mouth  of  Thy  glory,  as  it  is  said,  But  I  will 
remember  unto  them  the  covenant  of  their  an- 
cestors, whom  I  brought  forth  out  of  the  land 
of  Egypt  in  the  sight  of  the  nations,  that  I  might 
be  their  God :  I  am  the  Lord.  For  Thou  art  He 
who  remembereth  from  eternity  all  forgotten 
things,  and  before  the  throne  of  whose  glory 
there  is  no  forgetfulness.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O

114  MORNING  SERVICE 

Thou  didst  cause  Thy  glory  to  shine  forth 
from  out  the  clouds  and  enshrine  Thy  people  in 
Thy  Holy  Spirit.  Out  of  heaven  they  seemed 
to  hear  Thy  behests  proclaimed,  and  Thy  will 
was  revealed  to  them  in  rays  of  purity.  Surely 
the  whole  world  trembles  before  Thy  august 
Majesty  and  the  products  of  Thy  creation  are 
awed  by  Thy  sublimity.  When  Thou  didst  teach 
the  law  of  liberty  to  man,  Thy  Divine  fiat  ignited 
fires  of  hope  in  the  human  breast ;  and  the  decla- 
ration of  Thy  paternal  love  for  the  meek  and 
lowly,  had  all  the  terrors  of  the  thunder  and 
lightning  for  those  who  enslaved  men ;  and  the 
trumpet  blast  of  freedom  caused  them  all  to 
tremble. 

Therefore,  O  our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers, 
cause  the  trumpet  blast  of  universal  liberty  to 
be  sounded,  and  the  standard  of  Justice  to  be 
everywhere  set  up  throughout  Thy  world.  For 
Thou  hearest  the  sound  of  the  Shofar,  and  heed- 
est  the  cry  for  liberty;  and  there  is  none  like 
Thee.  Blesed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  who  in  mercy 
respondest  to  the  trumpet  blast  of  Thy  people 
Israel.

trumpet,  hear  ye. 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  Thy  people  Israel  and 
their  prayer ;  and  may  the  service  of  Thy  people 
Israel  be  ever  acceptable  unto  Thee. 

Praised  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whom  alone  we

all-good,  whose  mercies  fail  not;  Thou,  merciful 
Being,  whose  lovingkindness  never  ceaseth,  we  have 
ever  hoped  in  Thee. 

And  for  all  these  favors,  O  our  King,  shall  Thy

salvation.  Blessed  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whose  name 
is  the  All-Good,  and  unto  whom  it  is  proper  to  give 
thanks.  Amen ! 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with 
the  three-fold  blessing  of  Thy  Law  written  by  the 
hand  of  Moses  Thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by 
Aaron  and  his  sons,  the  priests,  Thy  holy  people, 
as  it  is  said,  The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee: 
the  Lord  make  His  face  shine  upon  thee,  and  be 
gracious  unto  thee:  the  Lord  turn  His  face  unto 
thee,  and  give  thee  peace.

people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us

Israel,  for  a  happy  life  and  for  peace.

O  Lord,  on  this  day  strengthen  us.  Bless  us 
and  cause  us  to  exalt  ourselves.  Requite  us  with, 
Thy  bounty  and  hear  our  supplication.  Inscribe 
us  in  the  book  of  life  and  support  us  by  the 
right  hand  of  Thy  righteousness.  And  may  it 
be  accounted  righteousness  unto  us  when  we 
are  faithful  in  the  performance  of  our  duties  in 
the  sight  of  God  as  He  has  willed ;  and  may  Jus- 
tice, Blessings,  Mercy  and  Peace  be  the  portion  of 
us  and  all  mankind  henceforth  and  forever. 
Blessed  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  who  makest  peace.

122  MORNING   SERVICE 

MOURNER'S   SERVICE 

Ye,  who  mourn  the  loss  of  departed  relatives,  and 
ye  who  commemorate  to-day  the  anniversary  of  the 
death  of  beloved  ones,  give  thanks  for  the  joys  and 
love  which  they  inspired  within  you  during  their 
life,  and  for  the  usefulness  which  you  developed 
while  you  still  enjoyed  their  association. 

Let  this  prayer  be  your  token  that  you  still  re- 
member your  departed  ones  and  that  you  honor 
their  remembrance  by  emulating  the  noble  deeds  of 
all  such  who,  while  living,  were  a  blessing  to 
others. 

Rise  and  pray  with  us,  that  when  the  summons 
comes,  and  we  are  called  hence,  we  may  live  in  the 
memories  of  our  relatives  and  friends,  so  that,  even 
though  dead,  the  recollection  of  our  good  deeds 
may  survive  to  inspire  them  to  higher  virtues  and 
nobler  achievements.  But,  above  all,  let  us  pray 
that  we  do  so  mould  and  direct  our  every  word, 
thought  and  deed,  that  in  contemplating  our  latter 
end,  we  may  be  free  from  dread  and  terror;  that 
without  looking  forward  to  it,  we  may  be  ready, 
when  summoned  by  the  call  of  Our  Father,  to  return 
home — leaving  this  world  at  peace  with  ourselves 
and  our  fellowmen.  Amen.

IT  is  a  duty  incumbent  upon  us  to  praise  the 
Sovereign  Lord  of  the  Universe,  to  ascribe  great- 
ness to  Him  who  is  the  Creator  of  all.  Who  hath 
not  allowed  us  to  fall  into  the  errors  of  idolatry  and 
superstition  and  hath  caused  us  to  value  light  and 
truth,  which  have  become  our  priceless  heritage.

FOR  He  hath  stretched  out  the  heavens  and  estab- 
lished the  earth,  and  the  habitation  of  His  glory  is 
exalted  above  all.  He  is  our  God  and  none  other. 
He  is  our  King  and  none  besides.  Even  as  it  is 
written  in  His  Law:  "Know  therefore  this  day 
and  consider  it  in  thine  heart  that  the  Lord  He  is 
God  in  heaven  above  and  upon  the  earth  beneath: 
and  there  is  none  else." 

WE  therefore  fix  our  hopes  on  Thee,  O  Lord  our 
God,  that  soon  we  may  behold  the  triumph  of  Thy 
majesty,  when  evil  shall  pass  away  from  earth  and 
idolatry  be  for  ever  destroyed.  Then  shall  Thy

kingdom  be  surely  established  in  the  world  and 
all  the  children  of  men  invoke  Thy  blessing.  That 
the  forces  of  wickedness  may  become  instruments 
of  good.  Then  will  all  the  inhabitants  of  Thy  world 
realize  and  know  that  to  Thee  alone  belongs  all 
worship  and  praise,  before  Thee  alone  will  they  then 
prostrate  themselves,  to  Thee  alone  pledge  their 
fealty:  thus  universally  accepting  upon  themselves 
the  sovereignty  of  Thy  glorious  kingdom,  and  Thou 
wilt  reign  eternally  over  all ;  for  Thine  is  the  king- 
dom, and  Thou  wilt  reign  gloriously  for  ever  and 
ever,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Law:  "The  Lord  shall 
reign  for  ever  and  ever."  And  it  is  said :  "And  the

May  all  vows,  adjurations,  and  oaths  by  which 
we  have  bound  ourselves,  sworn,  or  taken  oath 
to  leave  undone,  those  religious  duties  which  we 
should  have  performed,  or  to  transgress  precepts 
which  we  should  have  observed  during  the  past 
year,  be  forgotten.  From  all  of  them  may  we 
be  absolved  and  released;  may  they  have  no 
more  existence  in  our  minds,  but  be  put  aside 
forever,  except  that  our  contrition  and  repent- 
ance may  be  the  means  of  causing  us  to  cling 
closely  to  our  faith  and  to  steadfastly  perform 
our  religious  duties  during  the  coming  year.

life  from  the  fount  which  is  with  Thee. 

Cong.:  Remit  the  doom  and  lift  their  iniquity 
from  those  who  bear  Thy  standard. 

Rabbi:  Forgive  all  who  confess  their  sins  and 
direct  their  steps  to  Thee.

Psalm  92. 

IT  is  a  good  thing  to  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord, 
and  to  sing  praises  unto  Thy  name,  O  most  High : 
To  shew  forth  Thy  lovingkindness  in  the  morning, 
and  Thy  faithfulness  every  night,  Upon  an  instru- 
ment of  ten  strings,  and  upon  the  psaltery ;  upon  the 
harp  with  a  solemn  sound.  For  Thou,  Lord,  hast 
made  me  glad  through  Thy  work :  I  will  triumph  in 
the  works  of  Thy  hands.  O  Lord,  how  great  are 
Thy  works !  and  Thy  thoughts  are  very  deep.  A 
coarse  man  knoweth  not ;  neither  doth  a  fool  under- 
stand this.  When  the  wicked  spring  as  the  grass, 
and  when  all  the  workers  of  iniquity  do  flourish  ;  it 
is  that  they  shall  be  destroyed  for  ever:  But  Thou, 
Lord,  art  most  high  for  evermore.  For,  lo,  Thine 
enemies,  O  Lord,  for,  lo,  Thine  enemies  shall  perish  ; 
all  the  workers  of  iniquity  shall  be  scattered.  But 
my  horn  shalt  Thou  exalt  like  the  horn  of  an  uni- 
corn: I  shall  be  anointed  with  fresh  oil.  Mine  eye 
shall  also  see  the  discomfiture  of  mine  enemies,  and 
mine  ears  shall  hear  the  wail  of  the  wicked  that  rise 
up  against  me.  The  righteous  shall  flourish  like  the 
palm  tree:  he  shall  grow  like  a  cedar  in  Lebanon.

O  Lord,  open  Thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  Thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and 
God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God, 
the  most  high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindness, 
and  possessest  all  things ;  who  rememberest  the 
pious  deeds  of  patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring 
redemption  to  their  children's  children  for  Thy 
name's  sake.

146  EVENING   SERVICE  FOR 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  Thou  quick- 
enest  the  dead,  Thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest 
the  falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and 
keepest  Thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust. 
Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and 
who  resembleth  Thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and 
quickenest,  and  causeth  salvation  to  spring  forth?' 
Choir: 

Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  Thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea,  faithful  art  Thou  to  quicken  the  dead. 
Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  Thy  name  is  holy,  and  the 
pious  praise  Thee  daily. 

(Congregation  Sitting) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  Thine 
awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with  a 
perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God, 
that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy  hand, 
and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy  name 
is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  Thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  Thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  Thee,  joy  to 
our  land,  gladness  to  our  city.

148  EVENING  SERVICE  FOR 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke, 
when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to 
pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  Thou  alone  over 
all  Thy  works,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Holy  Word, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O  Zion, 
unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

THOU  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  all 
peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy  unity 
and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name;  Thou 
hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments  and 
brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our  King,  and 
called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name. 

(On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets.) 
AND  Thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our 
God,  [this  Sabbath  day  for  holiness  and  rest,  and\ 
this  Day  of  Atonement  for  pardon,  forgiveness, 
and  atonement,  that  we  may  [in  love]  obtain  par- 
don thereon  for  all  our  iniquities ;  an  holy  convoca- 
tion, as  a  memorial  of  the  departure  from  Egypt. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers!  May  our  re- 
membrance rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before 
thee,  with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  and  of 
all  Thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  deliver- 
ance and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Atonement.

(Congregation  Sitting) 

O  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  pardon  our 
iniquities  (on  this  Sabbath  day,  and)  on  this  Day 
of  Atonement ;  blot  out  our  transgressions  and 
our  sins,  and  make  them  pass  away  from  before 
Thine  eyes;  as  it  is  said,  I,  even  I,  am  He  that 
blotteth  out  thy  transgressions  for  Mine  own 
sake;  and  I  will  not  remember  thy  sins.  And  it 
is  said,  I  have  blotted  out,  as  a  cloud,  thy  trans- 
gressions, and,  as  a  mist,  thy  sins:  return  unto 
Me,  for  I  have  redeemed  thee.  And  it  is  said, 
For  on  this  day  shall  atonement  be  made  for  you, 
to  cleanse  you ;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be 
clean  before  the  Lord.  (Our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  accept  our  rest.)  Sanctify  us  by 
Thy  commandments,  and  grant  our  portion  in 
Thy  Law;  satisfy  us  with  Thy  goodness,  and 
gladden  us  with  Thy  salvation ;  (and  let  us  in- 
herit, O  Lord  our  God,  in  love  and  favour,  Thy 
holy  Sabbath;  and  may  Israel,  who  hallow  Thy 
name,  rejoice  thereon)  ;  and  purify  our  hearts  to 
serve  Thee  in  truth ;  for  Thou  art  the  forgiver  of 
Israel  and  the  pardoner  of  the  tribes  of  Jeshurun 
in  every  generation,  and  beside  Thee  we  have  no 
king  who  pardoneth  and  forgiveth.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  Thou  King  who  pardonest  and

forgivest  our  iniquities  and  the  iniquities  of  Thy 
people,  the  house  of  Israel,  who  makest  our  tres- 
passes to  pass  away  year  by  year,  King  over  all 
the  earth,  who  sanctifiest  (the  Sabbath  and) 
Israel  and  the  day  of  Atonement. 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  Thy  people  Israel  and

Praised  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whom  alone  we

for  our  souls  which  are  in  Thy  charge,  and  for  Thy 
miracles,  which  are  daily  with  us,  and  for  Thy  won- 
ders and  Thy  benefits,  which  are  wrought  at  all

all-good,  whose  mercies  fail  not ;  Thou,  merciful 
Being,  whose  lovingkindnesses  never  ceaseth,  we

154  EVENING   SERVICE  FOR 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  loving- 
kindness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  thy 
people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us 
together,  with  the  light  of  Thy  countenance ;  for  by 
the  light  of  Thy  countenance  Thou  hast  given  us, 
O  Lord  our  God,  the  Law  of  life,  lovingkindness 
and  righteousness,  blessing,  mercy,  life  and  peace; 
and  may  it  be  good  in  Thy  sight  to  bless  Thy  peo- 
ple Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every  hour  with  Thy 
peace. 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  be- 
fore Thee,  we  and  all  Thy  people  the  house  of 
Israel,  for  a  happy  life  and  for  peace.  Blessed 
art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  makest  peace. 

O  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  let  our  prayer 
come  before  Thee;  hide  not  Thyself  from  our 
supplication,  for  we  are  not  arrogant  and  stiff- 
necked,  that  we  should  say  before  Thee,  O  Lord 
our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  we  are  righteous 
and  have  not  sinned ;  but  verily,  we  have  sinned ; 
we  have  acted  perversely;  we  have  transgressed. 

We  have  turned  aside  from  Thy  commandments 
and  good  judgments,  and  it  hath  profited  us 
nought.  But  Thou  art  righteous  in  all  that  is 
come  upon  us ;  for  Thou  has  acted  truthfully,  but 
we  have  wrought  unrighteousness. 

What  shall  we  say  before  Thee,  O  Thou  who 
dwellest  on  high,  and  what  shall  we  recount  unto 
Thee,  Thou  who  abidest  in  the  heavens?  dost 
Thou  not  know  all  things,  both  the  hidden  and 
the  revealed?

Reader: 

THE  soul  is  Thine  and  the  body  is  Thy  work; 
have  pity  upon  Thy  handiwork. 

Yea,  both  soul  and  body  are  Thine;  O  Lord,  for 
Thy  name's  sake  hearken  to  our  entreaties. 

We  have  come  hither  trusting  in  Thy  name:  O 
Lord,  answer  our  prayer  for  Thy  name's  sake. 

Even  for  the  glory  of  Thy  name;  for  Thou  art 
a  merciful  and  gracious  God. 

And  for  Thy  name's  sake,  O  Lord,  pardon  our 
iniquity,  even  if  it  be  great. 

Reader  and  Choir: 

IT  is  Thy  wont,  O  God,  to  be  long-suffering 
toward  the  sinning  and  the  righteous ;  and  that  is 
Thine  exaltation. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  forsake  us 
not,  nor  cast  us  aside;  neglect  us  not  nor  annul 
Thy  covenant  with  us.  Bring  us  near  to  Thy  law ; 
teach  us  Thy  commandments ;  show  us  Thy  ways ; 
incline  our  hearts  to  fear  Thy  name.  Impress  Thy 
love  upon  our  hearts  that  we  may  return  unto  Thee 
in  truth  and  with  sincere  purpose.  And  for  the 
sake  of  Thy  great  name,  pardon  and  forgive  us 
our  sins. 

Alternately  by  the  Reader  and  Choir: 

FOR  we  are  Thy  people  and  Thou  art  our  God. 
We  are  Thy  children  and  Thou  our  Father. 
We  are  Thy  servants  and  Thou  art  our  Master. 
We  are  Thy  flock  and  Thou  our  Shepherd.

of  salvation;  for  Thou,  O  Lord,  art  our  help  and 
comfort.

166  EVENING   SERVICE  FOR 

MOURNER'S   SERVICE 

Ye,  who  mourn  the  loss  of  departed  relatives,  and 
ye  who  commemorate  to-day  the  anniversary  of  the 
death  of  beloved  ones,  give  thanks  for  the  joys  and 
love  which  they  inspired  within  you  during  their 
life,  and  for  the  usefulness  which  you  developed 
while  you  still  enjoyed  their  association. 

Let  this  prayer  be  your  token  that  you  still  re- 
member your  departed  ones  and  that  you  honor 
their  remembrance  by  emulating  the  noble  deeds  of 
all  such  who,  while  living,  were  a  blessing  to 
others. 

Rise  and  pray  with  us,  that  when  the  summons 
comes,  and  we  are  called  hence,  we  may  live  in  the 
memories  of  our  relatives  and  friends,  so  that,  even 
though  dead,  the  recollection  of  our  good  deeds 
may  survive  to  inspire  them  to  higher  virtues  and 
nobler  achievements.  But,  above  all,  let  us  pray 
that  we  do  so  mould  and  direct  our  every  word, 
thought  and  deed,  that  in  contemplating  our  latter 
end,  we  may  be  free  from  dread  and  terror;  that 
without  looking  forward  to  it,  we  may  be  ready, 
when  summoned  by  the  call  of  Our  Father,  to  return 
home — leaving  this  world  at  peace  with  ourselves 
and  our  fellowmen.  Amen.

170  EVENING    SERVICE    FOR 

MAGNIFIED  and  praised  be  the  living  God :  He  is, 
and  there  is  no  limit  in  time  unto  His  being. 

He  is  One,  and  there  is  no  unity  like  unto  His 
unity;  inconceivable  is  He,  and  unending  is  His 
unity. 

He  hath  neither  bodily  form  nor  substance:  we 
can  compare  nought  unto  Him  in  His  holiness. 

He  was  before  anything  that  hath  been  created — 
even  the  first:  but  His  existence  had  no  beginning. 

Behold  He  is  the  Lord  of  the  universe:  to  every 
creature  He  teacheth  His  greatness  and  His  sov- 
ereignty. 

The  rich  gift  of  His  prophecy  He  gave  unto  the 
men  of  His  choice,  in  whom  He  gloried. 

There  hath  never  yet  arisen  in  Israel  a  prophet 
like  unto  Moses,  one  who  hath  beheld  His  simili- 
tude. 

The  Law  of  truth  God  gave  unto  His  people  by 
the  hand  of  His  prophet,  who  was  faithful  in  His 
house. 

God  will  not  alter  nor  change  His  Law  to  ever- 
lasting for  any  other. 

He  watcheth  and  knoweth  our  secret  thoughts: 
He  beholdeth  the  end  of  a  thing  before  it  existeth. 

He  bestoweth  lovingkindness  upon  a  man  accord- 
ing to  his  work ;  He  giveth  to  the  wicked  evil  accord- 
ing to  his  wickedness. 

He  will  send  at  a  favorable  time  freedom  to  all 
men,  to  redeem  them  that  wait  for  the  end — His 
salvation. 

In  the  abundance  of  His  lovingkindness  God  will 
quicken  the  dead.  Blessed  for  evermore  be  His 
glorious  name.

He  is  Lord  of  the  universe,  Who  reigned  ere  any 
creature  yet  was  formed: 

At  the  time  when  all  things  were  made  by  His 
desire,  then  was  His  name  proclaimed  King. 

And  after  all  things  shall  have  had  an  end,  He 
alone,  the  Dreaded  One,  shall  reign ; 

Who  was,  Who- is,  and  Who  will  be  in  glory. 

And  He  is  One,  and  there  is  no  second  to  com- 
pare to  Him,  to  consort  with  Him: 

Without  beginning,  without  end ;  to  Him  belong 
strength  and  dominion. 

And  He  is  my  God — my  Redeemer  liveth — and 
a  rock  in  my  travail  in  time  of  distress ; 

And  He  is  my  banner  and  my  refuge,  the  portion 
of  my  cup  on  the  day  when  I  call. 

Into  His  hand  I  commend  my  spirit,  when  I 
sleep  and  when  I  wake; 

And  with  my  spirit,  my  body  also:  the  Lord  is 
with  me,  and  I  will  not  fear.

176  MORNING  SERVICE  FOR 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  Who  hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  command- 
ments, and  commanded  us  to  occupy  ourselves  with 
the  words  of  the  Law. 

Make  pleasant,  therefore,  we  beseech  Thee.  O 
Lord  our  God,  the  words  of  Thy  Law  in  our  mouth 
and  in  the  mouth  of  Thy  people,  the  house  of 
Israel,  so  that  we  with  our  offspring  and  the  off- 
spring of  Thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel,  may  all 
know  Thy  name  and  learn  Thy  Law.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  who  teachest  the  Law  to  Thy  people 
Israel. 

These  are  the  things  which  have  no  fixed  meas- 
ure (by  enactment  of  the  Law)  :  the  corners  of  the 
field,  the  first  fruits,  the  offering  brought  on  ap- 
pearing before  the  Lord  at  the  three  festivals,  the 
practice  of  charity  and  the  study  of  the  Law. 
These  are  the  things,  the  fruits  of  which  a  man 
en-joys  in  this  world,  while  the  stock  remains  for 
him  for  the  world  to  come:  viz..  honouring  father 
and  mother,  the  practice  of  charity,  hospitality  to 
wayfarers,  visiting  the  sick,  attending  the  dead  to 
the  grave,  and  making  peace  between  man  and  his 
fellow;  but  the  study  of  the  Law  is  equal  to  them 
all. 

O  my  God,  the  soul  which  Thou  gavest  me  is 
pure;  Thou  didst  create  it.  Thou  didst  form  it, 
Thou  didst  breathe  it  into  me;  Thou  preserves!  it 
within  me;  and  Thou  wilt  take  it  from  me,  but 
wilt  restore  it  unto  me  hereafter.  So  long  as  the 
soul  is  within  me,  I  will  give  thanks  unto  Thee, 
O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my  fathers,  Sover- 
eign of  all  works,  Lord  of  all  souls!

Law,  and  to  make  us  cleave  to  Thy  commandments. 
O  lead  us  not  into  the  power  of  sin,  or  of  trangres- 
sion  or  iniquity,  or  of  temptation,  or  of  scorn :  let 
not  the  evil  inclination  have  sway  over  us:  keep  us 
far  from  a  bad  man  and  a  bad  companion:  make 
us  cleave  to  the  good  inclination  and  to  good  works : 
subdue  our  inclination  so  that  it  may  submit  itself 
unto  Thee;  and  let  us  obtain  this  day,  and  every 
day,  grace,  favour  and  mercy  in  Thine  eyes,  and  in 
the  eyes  of  all  who  behold  us;  and  bestow  loving 
kindnesses  upon  us.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord, 
who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses  upon  all  creation.

180  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

May  it  be  Thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  oi 
my  fathers,  to  deliver  me  this  day,  and  every  day, 
from  arrogant  men  and  from  arrogance,  from  a 
bad  man,  from  a  bad  companion  and  from  a  bad 
neighbor,  and  from  any  mishap,  and  from  the  ad- 
versary that  destroy eth ;  from  a  hard  judgment, 
and  from  a  hard  opponent,  whether  he  be  a  son  of 
the  covenant  or  be  not  a  son  of  the  covenant. 


At  all  times  let  a  man  fear  God  as  well  in  private 
as  in  public,  acknowledge  the  truth,  and  speak  the 
truth  in  his  heart;  and  let  him  rise  early  and  say: 

Sovereign  of  the  universe!  Not  because  of  our 
righteous  acts  do  we  lay  our  supplications  before 
Thee,  but  because  of  Thine  abundant  mercies,  What 
are  we?  What  is  our  life?  What  is  our  piety? 
What  our  righteousness?  What  our  helpfulness? 
What  our  strength?  What  our  might?  What  shall 
we  say  before  Thee,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers?  Are  not  all  the  mighty  men  as  nought 
before  Theer  the  men  of  renown  as  though  they 
had  not  been,  the  wise  as  if  without  knowledge, 
and  the  men  of  understanding  as  if  without  discern- 
ment? For  most  of  their  works  are  void,  and  the 
days  of  their  lives  are  vanity  before  Thee,  and  the 
pre-eminence  of  man  over  the  beast  is  nought,  for 
all  is  vanity. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  let  us  be  re- 
membered by  Thee  for  good :  grant  us  a  visitation 
of  salvation  and  mercy  from  Thy  heavens  of  old; 
and  remember  unto  us.  O  Lord  our  God,  the  cove-

Thou  swarest  unto  Abraham  our  father  on  Mount

Moriah :  and  may  the  binding  with  which  Abraham 
our  father  bound  his  son  Isaac  on  the  altar  appear 
before  Thee,  how  he  overbore  his  compassion  in 
order  to  perform  Thy  will  with  a  perfect  heart.  So 
may  Thy  compassion  overbear  Thine  anger  against 
us;  in  Thy  great  goodness  may  the  fierceness  of 
Thy  wrath  turn  aside  from  Thy  people,  Thy  city 
and  Thine  inheritance.  Fulfil  unto  us,  O  Lord  our 
God,  the  word  in  which  Thou  hast  bidden  us  trust 
in  Thy  Law  through  the  hand  of  Moses  Thy  ser- 
vant, from  the  mouth  of  Thy  glory,  as  it  is  said, 
But  I  will  remember  unto  them  the  covenant  of 
their  ancestors,  whom  I  brought  forth  out  of  the 
land  of  Egypt  in  the  sight  of  the  nations,  that  I 
might  be  their  God:  I  am  the  Lord. 

It  is,  therefore,  our  duty  to  thank,  praise  and 
glorify  Thee,  to  bless,  to  sanctify  and  to  offer 
praise  and  thanksgiving  unto  Thy  name.  Happy 
are  we!  how  goodly  is  our  portion,  and  how  pleas- 
ant is  our  lot,  and  how  beautiful  our  heritage! 
Happy  are  we  who  early  and  late,  morning  and 
evening,  twice  every  day,  declare: 

Hear,  O  Israel:  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is 
One.  Blessed  be  His  name,  Whose  glorious  king- 
dom is  for  ever  and  ever. 

Thou  art  the  Lord  our  God  in  heaven  and  on 
earth,  and  in  the  highest  heaven  of  heavens.  Verily 
Thou  are  the  first  and  Thou  art  the  last,  and  beside

184  MORNING    SERVICK    FOR 

Thee  there  is  no  God.  Let  all  the  inhabitants  of 
the  world  perceive  and  know  that  Thou  art  God, 
Thou  alone,  over  all  kingdoms  of  the  earth.  Thou 
hast  made  the  heavens  and  the  earth,  the  sea  and 
all  that  is  therein ;  and  which  among  all  the  works 
of  Thy  hands,  whether  among  those  above  or 
among  those  beneath,  can  say  unto  Thee,  What 
doest  Thou?  Our  Father  \\  ho  art  in  heaven,  deal 
kindly  with  us  for  the  sake  of  Thy  great  name  by 
which  we  are  called. 

Blessed  be  He  who  spake  and  the  world  was: 
blessed  be  the  creator  of  all  that  is.  Blessed  be  He 
who  speaketh  and  fulfilleth.  Blessed  be  He  who 
hath  mercy  upon  the  earth  and  upon  all  His  crea- 
tures. Blessed  be  He  who  rewardeth  those  who 
fear  Him,  who  liveth  for  ever  and  endureth  to 
eternity.  Blessed  be  He  who  freeth  all  mankind. 
Blessed  be  He  and  blessed  be  His  name.  Blessed 
art  Thou  O  Lord,  King  of  the  universe,  the  God 
who  is  our  most  merciful  father,  whose  name  is 
praised  and  glorified  in  the  mouth  of  all  people, 
and  by  the  tongue  of  Thy  servants.  "\Yith  the  songs 
of  Thy  servant  David  will  we  praise  Thee  O  Lord 
our  God,  and  with  psalms  proclaim  our  loyalty  to 
Thee  our  King.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  and 
King  who  art  magnified  and  extolled  with  hymns.

186  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

O   give   thanks   unto   the   Lord,   call   upon    His 
name;  make  known  His  doings  among  the  peoples. 
Sing  unto  Him,  sing  praises  unto  Him ;  tell  ye  of 
all  His  marvellous  works.     Glory  ye  in  His  holy 
name:  let  the  heart  of  them  rejoice  that  seek  the 
Lord.     Search  ye  for  the  Lord  and  His  strength; 
seek  ye  His  face  evermore.     Remember  His  mar- 
vellous  works   that   He  hath  done:   His   wonders, 
and  the  judgments  of   His  mouth;  O  ye  seed  of 
Israel,    His    servant,    ye    children    of    Jacob,    His 
chosen  ones.     He  is  the  Lord  our  God:  His  judg- 
ments are  in  all  the  earth.     Remember  His  cove- 
nant for  ever,  the  word  which  He  commanded  to 
a  thousand  generations;   (the  covenant)  which  He 
made  with  Abraham,  and  His  oath  unto  Isaac ;  and 
confirmed  the   same  unto  Jacob   for  a   statute,  to 
Israel    for   an   everlasting   covenant :    saying.    Unto 
thee  will  I  give  the  land  of  Canaan,  as  the  lot  of 
your  inheritance :  when  ye  were  but  a  few  men  in 
numbers ;  yea,  few,  and  sojourners  in  it ;  and  they 
went  about   from  nation  to  nation,  and   from  one 
kingdom  to  another  people.     He  suffered  no  man 
to  oppress  them ;  yea.  He  rebuked  kings  for  their 
sakes ;    (saying).   Touch   not   Mine  anointed   ones, 
and  do  My  prophets  no  harm.    Sing  unto  the  Lord, 
all  the  earth ;  proclaim  Hi>  salvation   from  day  to 
day.     Recount  His  glory  among  the  nations,   His 
marvels  among  all  the  peoples.     For  great  is  the 
Lord,  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised;  He  is  to  be 
feared  above  all  gods. 

Make  a  joyful  noise  unto  the  Lord,  all  ye  lands. 
Serve  the  Lord  with  gladness:  come  before  his 
presence  with  singing.

1&8  MORNING    SEJWIL,£    FOR 

Know  ye  that  the  Lord  he  is  God:  it  is  F&e  that 
hath  made  us,  and  not  we  ourselves ;  we  are  His 
people,  and  the  sheep  of  His  pasture. 

Enter  into  his  gates  with  thanksgiving,  and  into 
his  courts  with  praise:  be  thankful  unto  Him,  and 
bless  His  name. 

For  the  Lord  is  good;  His  mercy  is  everlasting; 
and  his  truth  endureth  to  all  generations. 

//  on  Sabbath,  say  the  following: 
Psalm  92. 

IT  is  a  good  thing  to  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord, 
and  to  sing  praises  unto  Thy  name,  O  most  High: 
To  shew  forth  Thy  lovingkindness  in  the  morning, 
and  Thy  faithfulness  every  night,  Upon  an  instru- 
ment of  ten  strings,  and  upon  the  psaltery ;  upon  the 
harp  with  a  solemn  sound.  For  Thou,  Lord,  hast 
made  me  glad  through  Thy  work :  I  will  triumph  in 
the  works  of  Thy  hands.  O  Lord,  how  great  are 
Thy  works!  and  Thy  thoughts  are  very  deep.  A 
coarse  man  knoweth  not ;  neither  doth  a  fool  under- 
stand this.  When  the  wicked  spring  as  the  grass, 
and  when  all  the  workers  of  iniquity  do  flourish ;  it 
is  that  they  shall  be  destroyed  for  ever:  But  Thou, 
Lord,  art  most  high  for  evermore.  For,  lo,  Thine 
enemies,  O  Lord,  for,  lo,  Thine  enemies  shall  perish ; 
all  the  workers  of  iniquity  shall  be  scattered.  But 
my  horn  shalt  Thou  exalt  like  the  horn  of  an  uni- 
corn:  I  shall  be  anointed  with  fresh  oil.  Mine  eye 
shall  also  see  the  discomfiture  of  mine  enemies,  and 
mine  ears  shall  hear  the  wail  of  the  wicked  that  rise 
up  against  me.  The  righteous  shall  flourish  like  the 
palm  tree:  he  shall  grow  like  a  cedar  in  Lebanon. 
Those  that  be  planted  in  the  house  of  the  Lord 
shall  flourish  in  the  courts  of  our  God.  They  shall 
still  bring  forth  fruit  in  old  age ;  they  shall  be  fat 
and  flourishing;  To  shew  that  the  Lord  is  upright: 
He  is  my  rock,  and  there  is  no  unrighteousness  in 
Him.

190  MORNING    SERVICE   FOR 

Psalm  xxx. 
A  Psalm;  a  Song  at  the  Dedication  of  the  House; 

a  Psalm  of  David. 

I  WILL  extol  Thee,  O  Lord,  for  Thou  hast  drawn 
me  up,  and  hast  not  made  my  foes  to  rejoice  over 
me.  O  Lord,  my  God,  I  cried  unto  Thee,  and  Thou 
didst  heal  me.  O  Lord,  Thou  broughtest  up  my 
soul  from  the  grave :  Thou  hast  kept  me  alive,  that 
I  should  not  go  down  to  the  pit.  Sing  praise  unto 
the  Lord  O  ye  His  loving  ones,  and  give  thanks 
to  His  holy  name.  For  His  anger  is  but  for  a 
moment;  his  favour  is  for  a  lifetime:  weeping  may 
tarry  for  a  night,  but  joy  cometh  in  the  morning. 
As  for  me,  I  said  in  my  prosperity,  I  shall  never 
be  moved.  Thou,  Lord,  of  Thy  favour  hadst  made 
my  mountain  to  stand  strong:  Thou  didst  hide  Thy 
face;  I  was  confounded.  I  cried  unto  Thee,  O 
Lord ;  and  unto  the  Lord  I  made  supplication : 
What  profit  is  there  in  my  blood  if  I  go  down  to 
the  pit?  Can  the  dust  give  thanks  to  Thee?  Can 
it  declare  Thy  truth?  Hear,  O  Lord,  and  be  gra- 
cious unto  me;  Lord,  be  Thou  my  helper.  Thou 
hast  turned  for  me  my  mourning  into  dancing; 
Thou  hast  loosed  my  sackcloth,  and  girded  me  with 
gladness :  to  the  end  that  my  glory  may  sing  praise 
to  Thee,  and  not  be  silent:  O  Lord  my  God,  I  will 
give  thanks  unto  Thee  for  ever. 

Psalm  xc.  A  Prayer  of  Moses,  the  man  of  God. 
O  LORD,  Thou  hast  been  a  dwelling  place  unto 
us  in  all  generations.  Before  the  mountains  were 
brought  forth,  or  even  Thou  gavest  birth  to  the 
earth  and  the  world,  even  from  everlasting  to  ever- 
lasting Thou  art  God.  Thou  turnest  man  back  to 
dust,  and  sayest.  Return,  ye  children  of  men.  For 
a  thousand  years  in  Thy  sight  are  but  as  yesterday 
when  it  is  past,  and  a$  a  watch  in  the  night.  Thou 
earnest  them  away  as  with  a  flood ;  they  are  in  a

sleep:    in   the    morning   they   are  like  grass  which 
sprouteth  afresh.     In  the  morning  it  bloometh,  and 
sprouteth  afresh ;  in  the  evening  it  is  cut  down,  and 
withereth.       For  we  are  consumed  by  Thine  anger, 
and  in  Thy  wrath  are  we  confounded.     Thou  hast 
set  our  iniquities  before  Thee,  our  secret  sins  in 
the  light  of  Thy  countenance.     For  all  our  days 
have   passed   away    in   Thy    wrath,  we   bring   our 
years  to  an  end  like  a  sound.     The  days  of  our 
years    are    threescore    years    and   ten,    or    even    by 
reason    of   strength    fourscore   years;    yet    is    their 
pride  but  travail  and  nothingness ;    for   it   is   soon 
gone    by,    and    we  fly    away.      Who    kno\vcth    the 
power  of  Thine  anger,  and  Thy   wrath  according 
to  the  fear  that  is  due  unto  Thee?     So  teach  us  to 
number  our  days,  that  we  may  get  us  a  heart  of 
wisdom.     Return,  O  Lord;  how  long? — and  repent 
Thee  concerning  Thy  servants.    O  satisfy  us  in  the 
morning    with    thy    lovingkindness ;    that    we    may 
exult  and  rejoice  all  our  days.     Make  us  rejoice 
according  to  the  days  wherein  Thou  hast  afflicted 
us,  the  years  wherein  we  have  seen  evil.     Let  Thy 
work  be  made  manifest  unto  Thy  servants,  and  Thy 
majesty  upon  their  children.     And  let  the  pleasant- 
ness of  the  Lord  our  God  be  upon  us:  and  establish 
Thou  the   work  of  our  hands   upon  us;  yea,  the 
work  of  our  hands  establish  Thou  it. 

Psalm  xci. 

HE  THAT  dwelleth  in  the  shelter  of  the  Most 
High  abideth  under  the  shadow  of  the  Almighty. 
I  say  of  the  Lord,  He  is  my  refuge  and  my  fort- 
ress ;  my  God,  in  Whom  I  trust. — For  He  shall 
deliver  thee  from  the  snare  of  the  fowler,  and 
from  the  noisome  pestilence.  He  shall  cover  thee 
with  His  pinions,  and  under  His  wings  shalt  thou 
take  refuge ;  His  truth  shall  be  a  shield  and  a  buck- 
ler. Thou  shalt  not  be  afraid  of  the  terror  by 
night,  nor  of  the  arrow  that  flieth  by  day;  of  the

pestilence  that  walketh  in  darkness,  nor  of  the 
plague  that  ravageth  at  noon  day.  A  thousand  may 
fall  at  thy  side,  and  ten  thousand  at  thy  right  hand ; 
it  shall  not  come  nigh  unto  thee.  Only  with  thine 
eyes  shalt  thou  look  on,  and  see  the  retribution  of 
the  wicked. — For  Thou,  O  Lord,  art  my  refuge. — 
Thou  hast  made  the  Most  high  Thy  dwelling  place ; 
there  shall  no  evil  befall  thee,  neither  shall  any 
scourge  come  nigh  thy  tent.  For  he  shall  give  His 
angels  charge  over  thee,  to  keep  thee  in  all  thy 
ways.  They  shall  bear  thee  upon  their  hands, 
lest  thou  strike  thy  foot  against  a  stone.  Thou 
shalt  tread  upon  the  lion  and  the  adder:  upon  the 
young  lion  and  the  serpent  shalt  thou  trample. — 
Because  he  hath  set  his  love  upon  Me,  therefore 
will  I  deliver  him :  I  will  set  him  on  high,  because 
he  knoweth  My  name.  When  he  calleth  upon  Me, 
I  will  answer  him ;  I  will  be  with  him  in  trouble : 
I  will  deliver  him  and  honour  him.  With  length 
of  days  will  I  satisfy  him,  and  will  let  him  see  My 
salvation. 

Psalm  ciii.    A  Psalm  of  David. 

BLESS  the  Lord,  O  my  soul ;  and  all  that  is  within 
me  bless  His  holy  name.  Bless  the  Lord,  O  my 
soul,  and  forget  not  all  His  benefits:  Who  for- 
giveth  all  thine  iniquity ;  Who  healeth  all  thy  dis- 
eases :  Who  redeemeth  thy  life  from  the  pit ;  Who 
crowneth  thee  with  lovingkindness  and  tender  mer- 
cies :  Who  satisfieth  thy  mouth  with  good  things ; 
so  that  thy  youth  is  renewed  like  the  eagle's.  The 
Lord  executeth  righteous  acts,  and  judgments  for 
all  that  are  oppressed.  He  made  known  His  ways 
unto  Moses.  His  doings  unto  the  children  of  Israel. 
The  Lord  is  merciful  and  gracious,  slow  to  anger, 
and  abounding  in  lovingkindness.  He  will  not  al- 
ways contend ;  neither  will  He  keep  His  anger  for 
ever.  He  hath  not  dealt  with  us  after  our  sins,

heaven  is  high  above  the  earth,  so  mighty  is  His 
lovingkindness  over  them  that  fear  Him.  As  far 
as  the  east  is  from  the  west,  so  far  hath  He  re- 
moved our  transgressions  from  us.  Like  as  a  father 
hath  mercy  upon  his  children,  so  the  Lord  hath 
mercy  upon  them  that  fear  Him.  For  He  knoweth 
our  frame;  He  remembereth  that  we  are. dust.  As 
for  man,  his  days  are  as  grass;  as  the  flower  of 
the  field,  so  he  flourisheth.  For  the  wind  passeth 
over  it,  and  it  is  gone ;  and  the  place  thereof  shall

Lord  is  from  everlasting  to  everlasting  upon  them 
that  fear  Him,  and  His  righteousness  unto  child-

to  those  that  remember  His  precepts  to  do  them. 
The  Lord  hath  established  His  throne  in  the  hea-

word.  Bless  the  Lord,  all  ye  hosts;  ye  ministers

the  wind.  He  maketh  winds  His  messengers;  His 
ministers  flaming  fire:  He  founded  the  earth  upon 
its  bases,  that  it  might  not  be  moved  for  ever. 
Thou  didst  cover  it  with  the  deep  as  with  a  vesture ; 
the  waters  stood  above  the  mountains.  At  Thy  re- 
buke they  fled;  at  the  voice  of  Thy  thunder  they 
hasted  away.  The  mountains  rose,  the  valleys 
sank  into  the  place  which  Thou  hadst  founded  for 
them.  Thou  hast  set  a  bound  that  they  may  not 
pass  over;  that  they  turn  not  again  to  cover  the 
earth.  He  sendeth  forth  springs  into  the  valleys ; 
they  run  among  the  mountains.  They  give  drink 
to  every  beast  of  the  plain ;  the  wild  asses  quench 
their  thirst.  By  them  the  birds  of  the  heaven  have 
their  dwelling,  they  utter  their  voice  from  among 
the  branches.  He  giveth  drink  to  the  mountains 
from  His  upper  chambers :  the  earth  is  satisfied 
with  fruit  of  Thy  works.  He  causeth  grass  to 
grow  for  the  cattle,  and  herbs  for  the  service  of 
man  ;  that  he  may  bring  forth  bread  from  the  earth ; 
and  wine  that  maketh  glad  the  heart  of  man,  and 
oil  to  make  his  face  to  shine,  and  bread  that 
strengtheneth  man's  heart.  The  trees  of  the  Lord 
are  satisfied;  the  cedars  of  Lebanon  which  lie  hath 
planted ;  where  the  birds  make  their  nests :  as  for 
the  stork,  the  fir  trees  are  her  house.  The  high 
mountains  are  for  the  wild  goats ;  the  rocks  are  a 
refuge  for  the  conies.  He  made  the  moon  for 
seasons :  the  sun  knoweth  its  going  down.  Thou 
makest  darkness,  and  it  is  night;  wherein  all  the 
beasts  of  the  forest  do  move.  The  young  lions  roar 
after  their  prey,  and  seek  their  food  from  God. 
The  siin  ariseth,  they  get  them  away,  and  lay  them 
down  in  their  dens.  Man  goeth  forth  unto  his 
work  and  to  his  labour  until  the  evening.  How

Thou  made  them  all :  the  earth  is  full  of  Thy  pos- 
sessions. Yonder  is  the  sea,  great  and  of  wide 
extent;  therein  are  moving  things  innumerable, 
living  creatures  both  small  and  great.  There  the 
ships  make  their  course ;  there  is  leviathan  whom 
Thou  hast  formed  to  sport  therein.  These  all  wait 
upon  Thee,  that  Thou  mayest  give  them  their  food 
in  due  season.  Thou  givest  unto  them,  they  gather ; 
Thou  openest  thine  hand,  they  are  satisfied  with 
good.  Thou  hidest  Thy  face,  they  are  confounded ; 
Thou  gatherest  in  their  breath,  they  die,  and  return 
to  their  dust.  Thou  sendeth  forth  Thy  spirit,  they 
are  created;  and  Thou  renewest  the  face  of  the 
ground.  Let  the  glory  of  the  Lord  endure  for 
ever;  let  the  Lord  rejoice  in  His  works.  He-look- 
eth  on  the  earth,  and  it  trembleth ;  He  toucheth  the 
mountains,  and  they  smoke.  I  will  sing  unto  the 
Lord  as  long  as  I  live:  I  will  sing  praise  to  my 
God  while  I  have  my  being.  May  my  meditation 
be  sweet  unto  him:  as  for  me,  I  will  rejoice  in 
the  Lord.  Sinners  shall  be  consumed  out  of  the 
earth,  and  the  wicked  shall  be  no  more.  Bless  the 
Lord,  O  my  soul:  praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  xcviii. 

O  SING  unto  the  Lord  a  new  song;  for  He  hath 
done  marvellous  things:  His  right  hand,  and  His 
holy  arm,  hath  wrought  salvation  for  him.  The 
Lord  hath  made  known  His  salvation:  His  right- 
eousness hath  He  revealed  in  the  sight  of  nations. 
He  hath  remembered  His  lovingkindness  and  His 
faithfulness  toward  the  house  of  Israel :  all  the 
ends  of  the  earth  have  seen  the  salvation  of  our

202  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

God.  Shout  for  joy  unto  the  Lord  all  the  earth; 
break  forth  into  exultation,  and  sing  praises.  Sing 
praises  unto  the  Lord  with  the  lyre;  with  the 
lyre  and  the  sound  of  song.  With  trumpets  and 
the  sound  of  the  horn  shout  for  joy  before  the 
King,  the  Lord.  Let  the  sea  roar,  and  the  fulness 
thereof,  the  world,  and  they  that  dwell  therein. 
Let  the  streams  clap  their  hands,  let  the  moun- 
tains exult  together  before  the  Lord,  for  He  com- 
eth  to  judge  the  earth:  he  will  judge  the  world 
with  righteousness  and  the  peoples  with  equity. 

Psalm  cxlv 

I  WILL  extol  thee,  my  God,  OKing;  and  I  will 
bless  Thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Every  day  will  I  bless  Thee;  and  I  will  praise 
Thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  greatly  to  be  praised ;  and 
His  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  praise  Thy  works  to  an- 
other, and  shall  declare  Thy  mighty  acts. 

I  will  speak  of  the  glorious  honour  of  Thy 
majesty,  and  of  Thy  wondrous  works. 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  Thy  terrible 
acts;  and  I  will  declare  Thy  greatness. 

They  shall  abundantly  utter  the  memory  of  Thy 
great  goodness,  and  shall  sing  of  Thy  righteousness. 

The  Lord  is  gracious,  and  full  of  compassion; 
slow  to  anger,  and  of  great  mercy. 

The  Lord  is  good  to  all :  and  His  tender  mercies 
are  over  all  His  works. 

All  Thy  works  shall  praise  Thee,  O  Lord;  and 
Thy  saints  shall  bless  Thee. 

They  shall  speak  of  the  glory  of  Thy  kingdom, 
and  talk  of  Thy  power;

204  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

To  make  known  to  the  sons  of  men  His  mighty 
acts,  and  the  glorious  majesty  of  His  kingdom. 

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  Thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  generations. 

The  Lord  upholdeth  all  that  fall,  and  raiseth  up 
all  those  that  be  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  Thee ;  and  Thou  givest 
them  their  meat  in  due  season. 

Thou  openest  Thine  hand,  and  satisfies!  the  de- 
sire of  every  living  thing. 

The  Lord  is  righteous  in  all  His  ways,  and  holy 
in  all  His  works. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon 
Him,  to  all  that  call  upon  Him  in  truth. 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  Him: 
He  also  will  hear  their  cry,  and  will  save  them. 

The  Lord  preserveth  all  them  that  love  Him :  but 
all  the  wicked  will  He  destroy. 

My  mouth  shall  speak  the  praise  of  the  Lord : 
and  let  all  flesh  bless  His  holy  name  for  ever  and 
ever.  But  we  will  bless  the  Lord  from  this  time 
forth  and  for  evermore.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 


Psalm  cxlvi. 

PRAISE  ye  the  Lord.  Praise  the  Lord,  O  my 
soul:  I  will  praise  the  Lord,  while  I  live:  I  will 
sing  praises  unto  my  God  while  I  have  my  being. 
Put  not  your  trust  in  princes,  in  a  son  of  man,  in 
whom  there  is  no  help.  When  his  breath  goeth 
forth,  he  returneth  to  his  earth ;  in  that  very  day 
his  designs  perish.  Happy  is  he  that  hath  the  God 
of  Jacob  for  his  help,  whose  hope  is  in  the  Lord 
his  God :  Who  made  heaven  and  earth,  the  sea, 
and  all  that  is  therein ;  Who  keepeth  truth  for 
ever;  Who  executeth  judgment  for  the  oppressed;

206  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

Who  giveth  food  to  the  hungry:  the  Lord  looseth 
the  prisoners;  the  Lord  openeth  the  eyes  of  the 
blind;  the  Lord  raiseth  up  them  that  are  bowed 
down;  the  Lord  loveth  the  righteous;  the  Lord 
guardeth  the  strangers;  He  upholdeth  the  father- 
less and  widow;  but  the  way  of  the  wicked  Me 
maketh  crooked.  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever, 
thy  God,  O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye 
the  Lord. 


Psalm  cxlvii. 

PRAISE  ye  the  Lord ;  for  it  is  good  to  sing  praises 
unto  our  God ;  for  it  is  pleasant,  and  praise  is 
seemly.  The  Lord  doth  build  up  Jerusalem;  He 
gathereth  together  the  outcasts  of  Israel.  He 
healeth  the  broken  in  heart,  and  bindeth  up  their 
wounds.  He  counteth  the  number  of  the  stars ; 
He  calleth  them  all  by  their  names.  Great  is  our 
Lord,  and  mighty  in  power;  His  understanding  is 
infinite.  The  Lord  upholdeth  the  meek:  lie 
abaseth  the  wicked  to  the  ground.  Sing  unto  the 
Lord  with  thanksgiving;  sing  praises  upon  the 
lyre  unto  our  God :  Who  covereth  the  heaven  with 
clouds,  Who  prepareth  rain  for  the  earth,  Who 
maketh  the  grass  to  sprout  upon  the  mountains; 
\Vho  giveth  to  the  beast  its  food,  and  to  the  young 
ravens  which  cry.  He  delighteth  not  in  the 
strength  of  the  horse,  He  taketh  no  pleasure  in  the 
vigour  of  a  man.  The  Lord  taketh  pleasure  in 
them  that  fear  Him,  in  them  that  hope  for  His 
lovingkindness.  Extol  the  Lord,  O  Jerusalem; 
praise  thy  God,  O  Zion.  For  He  hath  strengthened 
the  bars  of  thy  gates ;  He  hath  blessed  thy  children

satisfieth  thee  with  the  fat  of  wheat.  He  sendeth 
out  His  commandment  to  the  earth;  His  word  run- 
neth very  swiftly.  He  giveth  snow  like  wool ;  He

His  ice  like  morsels:  who  can  stand  before  His 
cold?  He  sendeth  out  His  word,  and  melteth

waters  flow.  He  declareth  His  words  unto  Jacob, 
His  statutes  and  His  judgments  unto  Israel.  He 
hath  not  dealt  so  with  any  nation :  and  as  for  His 
judgments,  they  do  not  know  them.  Praise  ye  the 
Lord. 

Psalm  cxlviii. 

PRAISE  ye  the  Lord.  Praise  ye  the  Lord  from 
the  heavens:  praise  Him  in  the  heights.  Praise 
ye  Him,  all  His  angels:  praise  ye  Him,  all  His

heavens,  and  ye  waters  that  are  above  the  heavens.

which  none  shall  transgress.  Praise  the  Lord

and  hail,  snow  and  smoke;  stormy  wind,  fulfilling 
His  word :  mountains  and  all  hills ;  fruit  trees  and

things  and  winged  birds :  kings  of  the  earth  and  all

alone  is  exalted:  His  majesty  is  above  the  earth  and 
heaven.  And  He  hath  lifted  up  a  horn  for  His 
people,  to  the  praise  of  all  His  loving  ones:  even 
of  the  children  of  Israel,  the  people  near  unto  Him : 
praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlix. 

PRAISE  ye  the  Lord.  Sing  unto  the  Lord  a  new 
song;  His  praise  in  the  assembly  of  those  that  love 
Him.  Let  Israel  rejoice  in  His  Maker:  let  the 
children  of  Zion  be  glad  in  their  King.  Let  them 
praise  His  name  with  the  dance:  let  them  sing 
praises  unto  Him  with  the  timbrel  and  lyre.  For 
the  Lord  taketh  pleasure  in  His  people:  He 
adorneth  the  meek  with  salvation.  Let  those  that 
love  Him  triumph  in  glory :  let  them  exult  upon 
their  beds.  High  praises  of  God  are  in  their 
throat,  and  a  two-edged  sword  in  their  hand ;  to 
execute  vengeance  upon  the  nations,  and  punish- 
ments upon  the  peoples:  to  bind  their  kings  witli 
chains,  and  their  nobles  with  fetters  of  iron ;  to 
execute  upon  them  the  judgment  written :  this  is 
an  honour  for  all  His  loving  ones.  Praise  ye  the 
Lord. 

Psalm  cl. 

Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Praise  God  in  His  sanc- 
tuary: praise  Him  in  the  firmament  of  His 
power.  Praise  Him  for  His  mighty  acts:  praise 
Him  according  to  His  abundant  greatness. 
Praise  Him  with  the  blast  of  the  horn ;  praise 
Him  with  the  harp  and  the  lyre.  Praise  Him

Blessed  be  the  Lord  for  evermore.  Blessed  be

O  our  King;  from  everlasting  to  everlasting  thou 
art  God;  and  beside  Thee  we  have  no  King 
who  redeemeth  and  saveth.  Thou  didst  redeem 
us  from  Egypt,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  didst 
release  us  from  the  house  of  bondage;  during 
famine  Thou  didst  feed  us,  and  didst  sus- 
tain us  in  plenty ;  from  the  sword  Thou  didst  rescue 
us,  from  pestilence  Thou  didst  save  us,  and  from 
sore  and  lasting  diseases  Thou  didst  deliver  us. 
Hitherto  Thy  tender  mercies  have  helped  us,  and 
Thy  lovingkindnesses  have  not  left  us:  forsake  us 
not,  O  Lord  our  God,  for  ever.  Therefore  the 
limbs  which  Thou  hast  spread  forth  upon  us,  and 
the  spirit  and  breath  which  Thou  hast  breathed  into

newest  the  creation  every  day  continually  O  King,

lasting God,  in  Thine  abundant  mercies,  have  mercy

neither  is  there  any  beside  Thee ;  there  is  none  but 
Thee :  Who  is  like  unto  Thee  ? 

To  the  blessed  God  let  us  offer  pleasant  melodies ; 
to  the  King,  the  living  and  ever-enduring  God,  let

With  abounding  love  hast  Thou  loved  us,  O  Lord

our  hearts  cleave  to  Thy  commandments,  and 
unite  our  hearts  to  love  and  fear  Thy  name,  so  that 
•vve  be  never  put  to  shame.  Because  we  have  trusted 
in  Thy  holy  ,  great  and  revered  name,  we  shall  re- 
joice and  be  glad  in  Thy  salvation ;  for  Thou  art 
a  God  who  worketh  salvation.  Thou  hast  chosen 
us  and  hast  brought  us  near  unto  Thy  great  name 
for  ever  in  faithfulness,  that  we  might  in  love 
give  thanks  unto  Thee  and  proclaim  Thy  unity. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hast  chosen  Thy 
people  Israel  in  love.

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is 
One. 

BLESSED  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom 
is  for  ever  and  ever. 

(Congregation  Sitting) 

And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy 
might.  And  these  words,  which  I  command  thee 
this  day,  shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and  thou  shalt 
teach  them  diligently  unto  thy  children,  and  shalt 
talk  of  them  when  thou  sittest  in  thine  house,  and 
when  thou  walkest  by  the  way,  and  when  thou  liest 
down,  and  when  thou  risest  up.  And  thou  shalt 
bind  them  for  a  sign  upon  thine  hand,  and  they 
chnll  be  for  frontlets  between  thine  eyes.  And 
thou  shalt  write  them  upon  the  door  posts  of  thy 
house,  and  upon  thy  gates. 

That  ye  may  remember  and  do  all  my  command-

your  God,  who  brought  you  out  of  the  land  of 
Egypt,  to  be  your  God: 

Choir: 
The  Lord  your  God  is  Truth. 

True  and  firm,  established  and  enduring,  is  this 
Thy  word  unto  us  for  ever  and  ever. 

It  is  true,  the  God  of  the  universe  is  our  King, 
the  Rock  of  Jacob,  the  Shield  of  our  salvation. 
His  words  also  live  and  endure;  they  are  faithful 
and  desirable  to  all  eternity. 

True  it  is  that  Thou  art  indeed  the  Lord  our 
God  and  the  God  of  our  fathers,  our  King,  our 
Helper,  our  Maker,  the  Rock  of  our  salvation ;  our 
Deliverer  and  Rescuer  from  everlasting,  such  is  Thy 
name;  there  is  no  God  beside  Thee. 

True  it  is  that  Thou  art  indeed  the  first  and 
Thou  art  the  last,  and  beside  Thee  we  have  no 
King,  Redeemer  and  Saviour.  From  Egypt  Thou 
didst  redeem  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  from  the 
house  of  bondmen  Thou  didst  deliver  us.  Where- 
fore the  beloved  praised  and  extolled  God,  and 
offered  hymns,  songs,  praises,  blessings  and  thanks- 
givings to  the  King  and  God,  who  liveth  and  en- 
dureth ;  who  is  high  and  exalted,  great  and  revered; 
who  bringeth  low  the  haughty,  and  raiseth  up  the 
lowly,  leadeth  forth  the  prisoners,  delivereth  the 
meek,  helpeth  the  poor,  and  answereth  his  people 
when  they  cry  unto  Him ;  even  praises  to  the  Most 
High  God,  blessed  is  he,  and  ever  to  be  blessed. 
Moses  and  the  children  of  Israel  sang  a  song  unto 
Thee  with  great  joy,  saying,  all  of  them,

With  a  new  song  the  redeemed  people  offered 
praise  unto  Thy  name  at  the  sea  shore;  they  all 
gave  thanks  in  unison,  and  proclaimed  Thy  sover- 
eignty, and  said, 

The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever. 

O  Rock  of  Israel,  arise  to  the  help  of  Israel.  Our 
Redeemer,  the  Lord  of  hosts  is  his  name,  the  Holy 
One  of  Israel.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hast 
redeemed  Israel. 

(Congregation  Standing) 

O  Lord,  open  Thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  Thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and 
God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God, 
the  most  high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindness, 
and  possessest  all  things ;  who  rememberest  the 
pious  deeds  of  patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring 
redemption  to  their  children's  children  for  Thy 
name's  sake. 

Choir: 

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest 
in  life,  and  inscribe  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  Thine 
own  sake.  O  living  God.  O  King,  Helper,  Saviour 
and  Shield.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield 
of  Abraham.

226  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  Thou  quick- 
enest  the  dead,  Thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest 
the  falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and 
keepest  Thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust. 
Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and 
who  resembleth  Thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and 
quickenest,  and  causeth  salvation  to  spring  forth? 
Choir: 

Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  Thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea,  faithful  art  Thou  to  quicken  the  dead. 
Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Reader: 

We  will  sanctify  Thy  name  in  the  world  even  as 
they  sanctify  it  in  the  highest  heavens,  as  it  is 
written  by  the  hand  of  Thy  prophet: 

And  they  called  one  unto  the  other  and  said, 

Cong.:      Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts: 
the  whole  earth  is  full  of  His  glory. 

Reader: 

Then  with  a  noise  of  great  rushing,  mighty  and 
strong,  they  make  their  voices  heard,  and,  upraising 
themselves  towards  the  Seraphim,  they  exclaim 
over  against  them,  Blessed — 
Cong.:  Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from 
His  place. 

Reader: 

From  Thy  place  shine  forth.  O  our  King,  and 
reign  over  us,  for  we  wait  for  Thee.  Mayest  Thou 
be  magnified  and  sanctified  throughout  all  genera-

Cong.:  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,

Reader:  Unto  all  generations  we  will  declare 
Thy  greatness,  and  to  all  eternity  we

and  holy  God  and  King. 

(Congregation  Sitting) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  Thine 
awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with  a 
perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God, 
that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy  hand, 
and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy  name 
is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  Thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  Thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  Thee,  joy  to 
our  land,  gladness  to  our  city.

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke, 
when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to 
pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  Thou  alone  over 
all  Thy  works,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Holy  Word, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O  Zion, 
unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

THOU  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  all 
peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy  unity 
and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name;  Thou 
hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments  and 
brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our  King,  and 
called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name. 

(On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets.) 

AND  Thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our 
God,  [this  Sabbath  day  for  holiness  and  rest,  and] 
this  Day  of  Atonement  for  pardon,  forgiveness, 
and  atonement,  that  we  may  [in  love]  obtain  par- 
don thereon  for  all  our  iniquities ;  an  holy  convoca-

232  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers!  May  our  re- 
membrance rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before 
thee,  with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  and  of 
all  Thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  deliver- 
ance and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Atonement. 
Remember  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our 
well-being;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save 
us  unto  life :  by  Thy  promise  of  salvation  and  mercy, 
spare  us  and  be  gracious  unto  us ;  have  mercy  upon 
us  and  save  us;  for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  Thee, 
because  Thou  art  a  gracious  and  merciful  God  and 
King. 

(Congregation  Sitting) 

O  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  pardon  our 
iniquities  (on  this  Sabbath  day,  and)  on  this  Day 
of  Atonement ;  blot  out  our  transgressions  and 
our  sins,  and  make  them  pass  away  from  before 
Thine  eyes;  as  it  is  said,  I,  even  I,  am  He  that 
blotteth  out  thy  transgressions  for  Mine  own 
sake;  and  I  will  not  remember  thy  sins.  And  it 
is  said,  I  have  blotted  out,  as  a  cloud,  thy  trans- 
gressions, and,  as  a  mist,  thy  sins:  return  unto 
Me,  for  I  have  redeemed  thee.  And  it  is  said, 
For  on  this  day  shall  atonement  be  made  for  you, 
to  cleanse  you;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be 
clean  before  the  Lord.  (Our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  accept  our  rest.)  Sanctify  us  by 
Thy  commandments,  and  grant  our  portion  in 
Thy  Law;  satisfy  us  with  Thy  goodness,  and 
gladden  us  with  Thy  salvation ;  (and  let  us  in-

passes to  pass  away  year  by  year,  King  over  all 
the  earth,  who  sanctifiest  (the  Sabbath  and) 
Israel  and  the  day  of  Atonement. 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  Thy  people  Israel  and 
their  prayers ;  and  may  the  service  of  Thy  people 
Israel  be  ever  acceptable  unto  Thee. 

Praised  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whom  alone  we 
worship  and  adore.  Amen. 

We  give  thanks  unto  Thee,  for  Thou  art  the  Lord 
our  God  and  the  God  of  our  fathers  for  ever  and 
ever ;  Thou  art  the  Rock  of  our  lives,  the  Shield  of 
our  salvation  through  every  generation.  We  will 
give  thanks  unto  Thee  and  declare  Thy  praise  for 
our  lives  which  are  committed  unto  Thy  hand,  and 
for  our  souls  which  are  in  Thy  charge,  and  for  Thy 
miracles,  which  are  daily  with  us,  and  for  Thy  won- 
ders and  Thy  benefits,  which  Thou  bestowest  upon 
us  at  all  times,  evening,  morn  and  noon.  O  Thou 
who  art  all-good,  whose  mercies  fail  not;  Thou, 
merciful  Being,  whose  lovingkindness  never  ceas-

Congregation: 

O  inscribe  all  the  children  of  Thy  covenant  for 
a  happy  life. 

May  all  the  living  pay  homage  unto  Thee,  and 
praise  Thy  name  in  truth,  O  Lord,  our  help  and 
salvation.  Blessed  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  whose  name 
is  the  All-Good,  and  unto  whom  it  is  proper  to  give 
thanks.  Amen ! 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with 
the  three-fold  blessing  of  Thy  Law  written  by  the 
hand  of  Moses  Thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by 
Aaron  and  his  sons,  the  priests,  Thy  holy  people, 
as  it  is  said,  The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee : 
the  Lord  make  His  face  shine  upon  thee,  and  be 
gracious  unto  thee:  the  Lord  turn  His  face  unto 
thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  loving- 
kindness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel,  thy 
people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us 
together,  with  the  light  of  Thy  countenance ;  for  by 
the  light  of  Thy  countenance  Thou  hast  given  us, 
O  Lord  our  God,  the  Law  of  life,  lovingkindness 
and  righteousness,  blessing,  mercy,  life  and  peace; 
and  may  it  be  good  in  Thy  sight  to  bless  Thy  peo- 
ple Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every  hour  with  Thy 
peace.

238  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

Congregation: 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  be- 
fore Thee,  we  and  all  Thy  people  the  house  of 
Israel,  for  a  happy  life  and  for  peace.  Blessed 
art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  makest  peace. 

How  can  man  be  guiltless,  when  even  the 
hosts  of  Heaven  are  not  pure  in  Thy  sight?  If 
fire  will  consume  green  branches,  will  it  not  the 
more  quickly  burn  the  withered  grass?  Dark- 
ness is  clear  as  light  unto  Thee,  Whose  eye  ob- 
serveth  all.  Thy  habitation  is  concealed  from 
us,  yet  are  all  our  secret  things  revealed  unto 
Thee.  Thou  art  sole  Judge;  Thou  sittest  alone. 
Who  can  reverse  Thee?  And  over  nation  and 
individual  He  letteth  fall  the  plumb-line.  Who 
can  condemn?  Let  every  creature  consider  this, 
lest  his  inclination  mislead  him  to  sin  against  his 
Creator.  In  darkness,  he  grew  to  life ;  in  death, 
he  returns  to  darkness ;  the  reckoning  is  with  his 
Creator.  Unclean  at  birth,  unclean  through  life, 
in  death  he  maketh  unclean.  The  days  of  his 
life  are  empty  and  his  nights  are  void ;  and  his 
labors  in  vain.  Like  a  sleeper  aroused  from  his 
dream,  terrors  continually  affright  him.  By 
night  he  sleepeth  not;  by  clay  he  findeth  no  re- 
pose, till  he  slumbereth  in  the  grave.  Why  should 
living  man  complain?  Sufficient  for  him  that 
he  lives.  Born  to  trouble  and  toil,  happy  indeed 
is  he  if  his  labor  be  honest.  His  end  will  testify 
to  his  purpose;  why  should  he  try  to  deceive? 
All  the  while  his  seal  is  set  upon  his  work ;  how 
can  he  dissemble?  If  he  be  a  pious  worker,  his

deeds  will  accompany  him  to  the  beyond.  If 
he  be  a  seeker  of  wisdom,  she  will  abide  with 
him  to  the  end.  If  he  stirreth  the  wrath  of 
Heaven  by  fraud  or  deceit,  then  shall  his  days 
be  cut  off.  If  he  hath  desired  and  accepted  cor- 
rection, then  in  old  age  shall  he  flourish  in  wis- 
dom. But  if  he  get  a  good  name,  which  is  the 
noblest  of  titles,  it  shall  be  said  of  him,  that  of 
a  surety  the  day  of  his  death  was  better  than 
the  day  of  his  birth.  Until  the  day  of  his  death, 
Thou  waitest  for  him  to  repent,  that  Thou 
mayest  lead  him  to  immortal  life. 

SOVEREIGN  of  the  Universe!  the  custom  of  Thy 
righteous  tribunal  is  not  as  the  custom  of  human 
courts;  for  the  manner  of  man  is  that  if  one 
has  a  claim  of  money  against  another,  he  hales 
him  before  the  judge.  If  he  denies  his  indebt- 
edness, he  is  acquitted ;  and  if  he  confesses,  he 
is  compelled  to  pay.  But  at  Thy  tribunal  it  is 
not  so.  If  he  denies  his  sin,  woe  unto  him,  alas 
for  his  soul !  But  if  he  confesses  and  forsakes 
his  sins,  Thou  wilt  have  mercy  upon  him  and 
deliver  his  soul  from  destruction. 

Congregation: 

O  MAY  the  power  of  Thy  mercy  be  made  mani- 
fest this  day,  when  Thou  pardonest  the  sins  of 
Thy  people  who  confess  their  faults  before 
Thee. 

Congregation  and  Reader  together: 
MAY  it  be  Thy  will,  O  Lord,  my  God  and  the 
God   of  my   fathers,  that  Thou   enterest  not   into 
judgment  with  Thy  servant ;  for  no  man  can  prove

himself  perfect  in  Thy  sight.  What  am  I?  What 
is  my  life?  I  am  a  straw  before  the  fire,  as  dried 
twigs  beset  by  flames;  as  a  potsherd  covered 
with  silver  dross,  a  vanity  of  vanities,  vain  and 
unenduring.  Wherewith  shall  I  come  before  Thee, 

0  Lord,  my  God!  or  what  remedy  shall  I  ask  of 
Thee?     As  a  stubborn  and  rebellious  son  have  I 
angered  Thee,  by  doing  that  which  is  evil  in  Thy 
sight;  as  a  servant  disobeying  his  master  and  as 
a    pupil     contending    against   his   teacher.      That 
which  Thou  hast  declared  clean,  I  have  made  un- 
clean; and  that  which  Thou  hast  pronounced  un- 
clean, have  I  called  clean.     That  which  Thou  hast 
forbidden,  I  have  allowed;  and  that  which  Thou 
hast    permitted,  have    I    disallowed.     What    Thou 
lovest,   I  have  hated;   and   what   Thou   abhorrest, 
have  I  loved.    Trifles  in  Thy  sight  have  been  made 
important  by  me;  and  what  Thou  deemest  import- 
ant, have  I  regarded  as  trivial.     What  Thou  de- 
sirest  to  be  brought  near,  have  I  removed  afar;  and 
what  Thou  wouldst  require  remote  from  men,  have 

1  brought  near.     But  it  was  not  in  my  heart  to 
anger  Thee  and  with  great  confidence  I  come  to 
Thee  to  beseech  pardon,  forgiveness  and  remission. 
I   feel  emboldened  to  make  my  petition  and  know 
that  I  shall  not  be  put  to  shame,  for  my  trust  is  in 
Thee,  O  Lord,  Who  art  my  God,  and  my  reliance 
is   on   Thy  abundant  mercies.      For   I   know   that 
Thou  art  a  gracious  and  merciful  God,  long  suffer- 
ing and  full  of  mercy  and  exceedingly  beneficent.

244  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

What  shall  we  say  before  Thee,  O  Thou  Who 
dwellest  on  high,  and  what  shall  we  recount  unto. 
Thee,  Thou  Who  abidest  in  the  heavens?  dost 
Thou  not  know  all  things,  both  the  hidden  and  the 
revealed  ? 

Thou  knowest  the  secrets  of  eternity  and  the 
most  hidden  mysteries  of  all  living.  Thou  search- 
est  the  innermost  recesses,  and  triest  the  reins  and 
the  heart.  Nought  is  concealed  from  Thee,  or  hid- 
den from  Thine  eyes. 

May  it  then  be  Thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and 
God  of  our  fathers,  to  forgive  us  for  all  our  sins, 
to  pardon  us  for  all  our  iniquities,  and  to  grant 
us  remission  for  all  our  transgressions. 

Reader:  For   the  sins   which   we   have  committed 

against  Thee  under  compulsion. 
Cong.:    And  for  the  sins  which  we  have  committed 

against  Thee  of  our  own  will. 
Reader:  For   the    sins   which   we   have    committed

Cong.:    And  for  the  sins  which  we  have  committed

Cong.:    And  for  the  sins  which  we  have  committed

Reader: 

AND  because  of  the  love,  O  Lord  our  God, 
wherewith  Thou  lovest  Thy  people  and  because  of 
the  great  compassion,  wherewith  Thou  compas- 
sionatest  Thy  children,  Thou  hast  appointed  this

transgression.

Reader:  A  day  when  our  trespasses  shall  sink  out 

of  mind  and  be  forgotten. 
Cong.:    This    day    wilt    Thou    forgive    the   whole 

congregation   of   Israel   and  the   stranger 

that  sojourneth. 
Reader:  A  day  on  which  Thou  wilt  pardon  our 

dissimulation. 
Cong.:    This  day  cause  us  to  reaffirm  that  Thou 

art  a  good  and  merciful  God. 
Reader:  A  day  on  which  all  men  may  seek  Thee, 

Who  cleanest  and  purifiest  all. 
Cong.:    This  day  cleanse  us  from  all  our  sins. 
Reader:  A  day  on  which  I  implore  Thee  to  pardon 

all  iniquity. 

Cong.:    This  day  incline  Thine  ear  to  our  cry. 
Reader.  For  the  sake  of  the  glory  of  Thy  name,  O 

Thou  Who  hearest  prayer,  be  Thou  found 

of  us.     Yea,  hear  our  supplications  and 

answer  us. 
Cong.:    Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  O  Lord? 

Reader: 

As  it  is  written,  "Who  is  like  unto  Thee,  O  God, 
that  pardoneth  iniquity  and  passeth  by  the  trans- 
gression of  the  remnant  of  His  heritage?  He  re- 
taineth  not  His  anger  for  ever,  because  He  delight- 
eth  in  mercy.  He  will  turn  again ;  He  will  have  com- 
passion upon  us ;  He  will  subdue  our  iniquities  and 
He  will  cast  all  our  sins  into  the  depths  of  the  sea.

Thou  wilt  keep  faith  with  Jacob  and  show  mercy 
to  Abraham,  the  which  Thou  hast  sworn  unto  our 
fathers  from  the  days  of  old." 

Thou,  O  God,  art  slow  to  anger  and  art  called 
Lord  of  Mercy.  Thou  showest  the  way  to  repent- 
ance. Bear  in  mind  to-day  and  every  day  the  great- 
ness of  Thy  compassion  and  lovingkindness  and  be- 
stow them  upon  those  who  love  Thee.  Turn  unto 
us  in  compassion.  Even  as  Thou  didst  instruct  the 
meek  man  of  old,  have  we  come  before  Thee,  utter- 
ing prayer  and  supplication.  Be  not  angered  against 
us  but  permit  us  to  shelter  in  the  shadow  of  Thy 
wing,  as  on  the  day  when  Thy  glory  descended  in  a 
lowering  cloud.  O  forgive  transgression  and  blot 
out  sin  as  on  the  day  when  Thou  didst  uphold  the 
prophet.  Hear  our  cry  and  give  ear  unto  our  speech, 
as  on  the  day  Thou  didst  proclaim  Thy  name,  O 
Lord,  even  as  it  is  said: 

"And  the  Lord  made  Himself  manifest  to  him 
and  declared, 

'The  Lord,  the  Lord  is  a  God,  full  of  compassion 
and  gracious,  slow  to  anger  and  abundant  in  mercy 
and  truth ;  reserving  His  mercy  for  countless  thou- 
sands, forgiving  iniquity,  transgression  and  sin  and 
acquitting.' ' 

Cong.:    And  Thou   wilt  pardon   our  iniquity  and 

our  sin  and  make  us  inherit  good. 
Reader:  Like  as  a   father  pitieth  his  children,  so 

pity  us,  O  Lord. 
Cong.:    The  Lord  of  hosts  is  with  us;  the  God  of 

Jacob  is  a  Fortress  unto  us. 
Reader:  O  Lord  of  hosts,  happy  is  the  man  that 

trusteth  in  Thee.

MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 


Cong.:  O  God,  save  us!  Answer  us,  O  King,  on 
the  day  when  we  call  upon  Thee. 

Reader:  Pardon,  I  beseech  Thee,  the  iniquity  of 
this  people,  according  unto  the  greatness 
of  Thy  mercy,  and  as  Thou  hast  forgiven 
this  people  even  from  Egypt  until  now. 

Cong.:  And  the  Lord  said:  "I  have  pardoned  ac- 
cording to  Thy  word." 

Reader:  We  are  dismayed  by  corruption;  our 
strength  is  enfeebled  through  evil. 

Cong.:  We  are  brought  exceedingly  low;  we  are 
humbled  unto  the  dust. 

Reader:  O  merciful  One.  it  is  our  wont  to  be 
stubborn  and  rebellious. 

Cong.:  We  cry  with  our  lips:  "We  have  sinned." 
And  in  our  hearts  we  are  still  perverse. 

Reader:  O  Most  High,  Thy  mercies  are  everlast- 
ing; forgiveness  is  with  Thee. 

Cong.:  Avert  the  evil  and  incline  towards  us  in 
mercy. 

Reader:  Make  Thyself  manifest  at  times  like  this, 
for  we  are  greatly  distressed. 

Cong.:  Let  Thy  goodness  and  Thy  mercy  unto  us 
be  revealed  unto  all. 

Reader:  Silence  the  accuser  that  he  may  no  longer 
charge  us. 

Cong.:  Rebuke  him  that  he  be  silent;  and  may  a 
good  advocate  arise  to  justify  us  and  de- 
clare our  integrity. 

Reader:  Thy  ways,  O  merciful  and  gracious  One, 
Thou  hast  revealed  to  the  faithful  of  Thy 
house. 

Cong.:  When  he  sought  Thee,  Thou  didst  make 
known  unto  him  Thy  faithfulness.

252  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

O  mighty  King,  Who  art  enthroned  in  mercy  and 
governest  in  love,  Thou  pardonest  the  iniquities  of 
Thy  people,  causing  their  sins  to  pass  away  con- 
tinually. Thy  mercy  reacheth  out  to  the  sinner 
and  Thy  forgiveness  unto  the  transgressor.  Thou 
art  charitable  to  all  mankind  and  dost  not  visit  upon 
them  the  full  penalty  of  their  actions.  O  Lord, 
Who  hast  impressed  upon  our  nature  Thy  divine 
attributes,  reveal  Thy  essence  unto  us,  as  Thou 
didst  make  Thyself  known  of  old  to  Moses,  our 
teacher,  and  thus  is  it  written  in  Thy  Law:  "And 
the  Lord  descended  in  the  cloud  and  stood  with 
him  there  and  proclaimed  the  name  of  the  Lord. 

And  the  Lord  passed  by  before  him  and  pro- 
claimed, 'The  Lord,  the  Lord  God,  merciful  and 
gracious,  long-suffering  and  abundant  in  goodness 
and  truth ;  keeping  mercy  for  thousands,  forgiving 
iniquity  and  transgression  and  sin,  and  acquitting.' 
Pardon  our  iniquity  and  our  sin  and  take  us  for 
thine  inheritance." 

Cong.:  "For  on  this  day  shall  He  make  an  atone- 
ment for  you  to  cleanse  you;  from  all 
your  sins,  shall  ye  be  clean  before  the 
Lord." 

Reader:  O   our  Rock,   we  have   sinned.     Forgive 

us,  Thou  Who  didst  form  us. 
Cong.:     Hear,   O   Israel,   the   Lord   our  God,   the 

Lord  is  one. 
Reader:  Blessed  is  His  name,  the  glory  of  Whose 

kingdom  is  for  ever  and  ever. 
Cong.:    The  Lord,  He  is  God;  the  Lord,  He  is 

God. 
Reader:  O  Lord,  be  gracious  unto  us  and  sustain 

us.

258  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

READING  OF  THE  LAW. 

THERE  is  none  like  unto  Thee  among  the  gods, 
O  Lord ;  and  there  are  no  works  like  unto  Thine. 
Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  Thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  generations.  The 
Lord  reigneth ;  the  Lord  hath  reigned ;  the  Lord 
shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  The  Lord  will  give 
strength  unto  His  people ;  the  Lord  will  bless  His 
people  with  peace. 

The  Ark  is  Opened. 

(Congregation  Standing) 

AND  it  came  to  pass,  when  the  Ark  set  forward, 
that  Moses  said,  Rise  up,  O  Lord,  and  Thine  ene- 
mies shall  be  scattered,  and  they  that  hate  Thee 
shall  flee  before  Thee.  For  out  of  Zion  shall  go 
forth  the  Law,  and  the  word  of  the  Lord  from 
Jerusalem. 

The  Reader  takes  the  Scroll  of  the  Law,  and  says: 

BLESSED  be  He  Who  in  His  holiness  gave  the 
Law  to  His  people  Israel. 

Said  by  Reader  and  repeated  by  Choir  and  Con- 
gregation: 

THE  Lord,  the  Lord  God,  merciful  and  gracious, 
long-suffering  and  abundant  in  goodness  and  truth ; 
keeping  mercy  for  thousands,  forgiving  iniquity 
and  transgression  and  sin  and  acquitting.

260  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

SILENT  PRAYER. 

Father  of  all  mercies!  I  humbly  pray  Thee 
that  thou  wilt  grant  me  strength  and  wisdom  in 
the  pursuit  of  my  vocation,  that  I  may  be  enabled 
to  sustain  myself  and  my  dear  ones  in  honor. 
May  the  result  of  my  labors  bring  contentment 
and  the  enjoyment  of  that  which  is  lawful  and 
right. 

Let  not  me  or  mine  be  dependent  upon  the 
bounty  of  our  fellow  creatures,  but  sustain  us 
from  Thy  bountiful  hand,  which  Thou  openest  to 
satisfy  the  needs  of  all  living. 

May  it  be  Thy  will,  O  God;  that  I  shall  per- 
form only  such  deeds  as  are  worthy  in  Thy  sight, 
and  that  my  way  in  life  shall  be  upright  before 
Thee.  Guard  me  from  evil  and  shield  me  from 
temptation.  May  the  words  of  my  mouth  and 
the  meditations  of  my  heart,  be  acceptable  before 
Thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer. 
Amen. 


The  Scroll  of  the  Law  is  taken  out.    Reader  chants 

these  verses,  which  arc  repeated  by  Choir

one!

RABBI'S  PRAYER  BEFORE  THE 
ARK. 

Almighty  Father!  Sovereign  of  the  universe! 
We  reverently  bow  before  Thee  and  the  law 
which  Thou  hast  given  us,  and  pray  Thee  so  to 
incline  our  hearts  to  obey  Thy  commands,  that 
we  may  learn  to  have  faith  in  Thee  alone.  For 
not  in  man  do  we  put  our  trust;  nor  on  fame  or 
wealth  do  we  rely.  Our  only  hope  is  in  Thee, 
who  art  the  God  of  truth,  whose  law  is  truth, 
and  whose  prpphets  are  prophets  of  truth,  and 
who  doest  all  things  in  goodness  and  in  truth. 

May  it  be  Thy  will  to  open  our  hearts  to  under- 
stand Thy  law,  so  that  we  may  find  comfort  and 
consolation  on  this  Day  of  Atonement  and  that 
the  assurance  of  forgiveness  and  salvation  may 
sustain  us.  Amen.

Reader  and  Congregation: 

THINE,  O  Lord,  is  the  greatness,  and  the  power, 
and  the  glory,  and  the  victory,  and  the  majesty: 
for  all  that  is  in  the  heaven  and  in  the  earth  is 
Thine;  Thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  kingdom,  and  the 
supremacy  as  Head  over  all.  Exalt  ye  the  Lord 
our  God,  and  worship  at  His  footstool :  holy  is  He. 

The  Rabbi  elevates  the  Scroll,  and  says: 
"In  this  scroll  is  contained  the  Law  which  Moses 
set  before  the  Children  of  Israel.    It'  is  the  inherit- 
ance of  the  congregation  of  Jacob." 

Bless  ye  the  Lord,  Who  is  to  be  blessed. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord,  Who  is  to  be  blessed  for 
ever  and  ever. 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  Who  hast  chosen  us  and  hast  given  us 
Thy  Law.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  givest 
the  Law. 

After  the  reading  of  a  Section  of  the  Law,  the  fol- 
lowing Blessing  is  said: 

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, Who  hast  given  us  the  Law  of  truth,  and  hast 
planted  everlasting  life  in  our  midst.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  givest  the  Law.

PORTION  OF  THE  LAW. 

Deut.  29.  30. 

And  Moses  called  unto  all  Israel,  and  said  unto 
them,  Ye  have  seen  all  that  the  Lord  did  before 
your  eyes  in  the  land  of  Egypt  unto  Pharaoh,  and 
unto  all  his  servants,  and  unto  all  his  land; 

The  great  temptations  which  thine  eyes  have 
seen,  the  signs,  and  those  great  miracles: 

Yet  the  Lord  hath  not  given  you  an  heart  to  per- 
ceive, and  eyes  to  see,  and  ears  to  hear,  unto  this 
day. 

And  I  have  led  you  forty  years  in  the  wilderness : 
your  clothes  are  not  waxen  old  upon  you,  and  thy 
shoe  is  not  waxen-  old  upon  thy  foot. 

Ye  have  not  eaten  bread,  neither  have  ye  drunk 
wine  or  strong  drink :  that  ye  might  know  that  I 
am  the  Lord  your  God. 

And  when  ye  came  unto  this  place,  Sihon  the 
king  of  Heshbon,  and  Og  the  king  of  Bashan,  came 
out  against  us  unto  battle,  and  we  smote  them : 

And  we  took  their  land,  and  gave  it  for  an  in- 
heritance unto  the  Reubenites,  and  to  the  Gadites, 
and  to  the  half  tribe  of  Manasseh. 

Keep  therefore  the  words  of  this  covenant,  and 
do  them,  that  ye  may  prosper  in  all  that  ye  do. 

Ye  stand  this  day  all  of  you  before  the  Lord 
your  God ;  your  captains  of  your  tribes,  your  elders, 
and  your  officers,  with  all  the  men  of  Israel, 

Your  little  ones,  your  wives,  and  thy  stranger 
that  is  in  thy  camp,  from  the  hewer  of  thy  wood 
unto  the  drawer  of  thy  water:

266  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

That  thou  shouldst  enter  into  covenant  with  the 
Lord  thy  God,  and  into  His  oath,  which  the  Lord 
thy  God  maketh  with  thee  this  day: 

That  He  may  establish  thee  to-day  for  a  people 
unto  Himself,  and  that  He  may  be  unto  thee  a 
God,  as  He  hath  said  unto  thee,  and  as  He  hath 
sworn  unto  thy  fathers,  to  Abraham,  to  Isaac,  and 
to  Jacob. 

Neither  with  you  only  do  I  make  this  covenant 
and  this  oath; 

But  with  him  that  standeth  here  with  us  this  day 
before  the  Lord  our  God,  and  also  with  him  that 
is  not  here  with  us  this  day: 

For  ye  know  how  we  have  dwelt  in  the  land 
of  Egypt;  and  how  we  came  through  the  nations 
which  ye  passed  by ; 

And  ye  have  seen  their  abominations,  and  their 
idols,  wood  and  stone,  silver  and  gold,  which  were 
among  them: 

Lest  there  should  be  among  you  man,  or  woman, 
or  family,  or  tribe,  whose  heart  turneth  away  this 
day  from  the  Lord  our  God,  to  go  and  serve  the 
gods  of  these  nations ;  lest  there  should  be  among 
you  a  root  that  beareth  gall  and  wormwood; 

And  it  come  to  pass,  when  he  heareth  the  words 
of  this  curse,  that  he  bless  himself  in  his  heart, 
saying,  I  shall  have  peace,  though  I  walk  in  the 
imagination  of  mine  heart,  to  add  drunkenness  to 
thirst : 

The  Lord  will  not  spare  him,  but  then  the  anger 
of  the  Lord  and  His  jealousy  shall  smoke  against

that  man,  and  all  the  curses  that  are  written  in  this 
book  shall  lie  upon  him,  and  the  Lord  shall  blot 
out  his  name  from  under  heaven. 

And  the  Lord  shall  separate  him  unto  evil  out 
of  all  the  tribes  of  Israel,  according  to  all  the 
curses  of  the  covenant  that  are  written  in  this  book 
of  the  Law: 

So  that  the  generation  to  come  of  your  children 
that  shall  rise  up  after  you,  and  the  stranger  that 
shall  come  from  a  far  land,  shall  say,  when  they 
see  the  plagues  of  that  land,  and  the  sicknesses 
which  the  Lord  hath  laid  upon  it; 

And  that  the  whole  land  thereof  is  brimstone, 
and  salt,  and  burning,  that  it  is  not  sown,  nor 
beareth,  nor  any  grass  groweth  therein,  like  the 
overthrow  of  Sodom,  and  Gomorrah,  Admah,  and 
Zeboim,  which  the  Lord  overthrew  in  His  anger, 
and  in  His  wrath: 

Even  all  nations  shall  say,  Wherefore  hath  the 
Lord  done  thus  unto  this  land?  what  meaneth  the 
heat  of  this  great  anger? 

Then  men  shall  say,  Because  they  have  forsaken 
the  covenant  of  the  Lord  God  of  their  fathers, 
which  He  made  with  them  when  He  brought  them 
forth  out  of  the  land  of  Egypt: 

For  they  went  and  served  other  gods,  and  wor- 
shipped them,  gods  whom  they  knew  not,  and 
whom  He  had  not  given  unto  them: 

And  the  anger  of  the  Lord  was  kindled  against 
this  land,  to  bring  upon  it  all  the  curses  that  are 
written  in  this  book : 

And  the  Lord  rooted  them  out  of  their  land  in 
anger,  and  in  wrath,  and  in  great  indignation,  and

The  secret  things  belong  unto  the  Lord  our  God : 
but  those  things  which  are  revealed  belong  unto  us 
and  to  our  children  for  ever,  that  we  may  do  all 
the  words  of  this  law. 


AND  it  shall  come  to  pass,  when  all  these  things 
are  come  upon  thee,  the  blessing  and  the  curse, 
which  I  have  set  before  thee,  and  thou  shall  call 
them  to  mind  among  all  the  nations,  whither  the 
Lord  thy  God  hath  driven  thee, 

And  shalt  return  unto  the  Lord  thy  God,  and 
shall  obey  His  voice  according  to  all  lhal  I  com- 
mand ihee  ihis  day,  ihou  and  ihy  children,  wilh 
all  Ihine  hearl,  and  with  all  thy  soul ; 

That  then  the  Lord  thy  God  will  turn  thy  cap- 
tivity, and  have  compassion  upon  thee,  and  will 
return  and  gather  thee  from  all  the  nations, 
whither  the  Lord  thy  God  hath  scattered  thee. 

If  any  of  thine  be  driven  out  unto  the  outmost 
parts  of  heaven,  from  thence  will  the  Lord  thy 
God  gather  thee,  and  from  thence  will  he  fetch 
thee: 

And  the  Lord  thy  God  will  bring  thee  into  the 
land  which  thy  fathers  possessed,  and  thou  shalt 
possess  it;  and  He  will  do  thee  good,  and  multiply 
thee  above  thy  fathers. 

And  the  Lord  thy  God  will  circumcise  thine 
heart,  and  the  heart  of  thy  seed,  to  love  the  Lord 
thy  God  with  all  thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul, 
that  thou  mayest  live. 

And  the  Lord  thy  God  will  put  all  these  curses 
upon  thine  enemies,  and  on  them  that  hate  thee, 
which  persecuted  thee. 

And  thou  shalt  return  and  obey  the  voice  of  the 
Lord,  and  do  all  His  commandments  which  I  com- 
mand thee  this  day.

MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

And  the  Lord  thy  God  will  make  thee  plenteous 
in  every  work  of  thine  hand,  in  the  fruit  of  thy 
body,  and  in  the  fruit  of  thy  cattle,  and  in  the  fruit 
of  thy  land,  for  good :  for  the  Lord  will  again  re- 
joice over  thee  for  good,  as  He  rejoiced  over  thy 
fathers : 

If  thou  shall  hearken  unto  the  voice  of  the  Lord 
thy  God,  to  keep  His  commandments  and  His 
statutes  which  are  written  in  this  book  of  the  Law, 
and  if  thou  turn  unto  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul. 

For  this  commandment  which  I  command  thee 
this  day,  it  is  not  hidden  from  thee,  neither  is  it 
far  off. 

It  is  not  in  heaven  that  thou  shouldest  say,  Who 
shall  go  up  for  us  to  heaven,  and  bring  it  unto  us, 
that  we  may  hear  it,  and  do  it? 

Neither  is  it  beyond  the  sea,  that  thou  shouldest 
say.  Who  shall  go  over  the  sea  for  us,  and  bring  it, 
unto  us,  that  we  may  hear  it,  and  do  it? 

But  the  word  is  very  nigh  unto  thee,  in  thy 
mouth,  and  in  thy  heart,  that  thou  mayest  do  it. 

See,  I  have  set  before  thee  this  day  life  and 
good,  and  death  and  evil ; 

In  that  I  command  thee  this  day  to  love  the 
Lord  thy  God,  to  walk  in  His  ways,  and  to  keep 
His  commandments  and  His  statutes  and  His  judg- 
ments, that  thou  mayest  live  and  multiply:  and  the 
Lord  thy  God  shall  bless  thee  in  the  land  whither 
thou  goest  to  possess  it. 

But  if  thine  heart  turn  away,  so  that  thou  wilt

upon  the  land,  whither  thou  passest  over  Jordan 
to  go  to  possess  it. 

I  call  heaven  and  earth  to  record  this  day  against 
you,  that  I  have  set  before  you  life  and  death, 
blessing  and  cursing:  therefore  choose  life,  that 
both  thou  and  thy  seed  may  live: 

That  thou  mayest  love  the  Lord  thy  God,  and 
that  thou  mayest  obey  His  voice,  and  that  thou 
mayest  cleave  unto  Him:  for  He  is  thy  life,  and 
the  length  of  thy  days :  that  thou  mayest  dwell  in 
the  land  which  the  Lord  sware  unto  thy  fathers, 
to  Abraham,  to  Isaac,  and  to  Jacob,  to  give  them. 


Before  the  Lesson  from  the  Prophets  the  following 
is  said: 

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  Who  hast  chosen  good  prophets,"  and  hast 
found  pleasure  in  their  words  which  were  spoken 
in  truth. 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  hast  chosen  the 
Law,  and  Moses  Thy  servant,  and  Israel  Thy 
people,  and  prophets  of  truth  and  righteousness.

Isaiah  58. 

CRY  aloud,  spare  not,  lift  up  thy  voice  like  a 
trumpet,  and  shew  my  people  their  transgres^on, 
and  the  house  of  Jacob  their  sins. 

Yet  they  seek  me  daily,  and  delight  to  know  my 
ways,  as  a  nation  that  did  righteousness,  and  for- 
sook not  the  ordinance  of  their  God :  they  ask  of 
me  the  ordinances  of  justice;  they  take  delight  in 
approaching  to  God. 

Wherefore  have  we  fasted,  say  they,  and  thou 
seest  not?  wherefore  have  we  afflicted  our  soul. 
and  thou  takest  no  knowledge?  Behold,  in  the 
day  of  your  fast  ye  find  pleasure,  and  exact  all 
your  labours. 

Behold,  ye  fast  for  strife  and  debate,  and  to 
smite  with  the  fist  of  wickedness:  ye  shall  not  fa-t 
as  ye  do  this  day,  to  make  your  voice  to  be  heard 
on  high. 

Is  it  such  a  fast  that  I  have  chosen?  a  day  for 
a  man  to  afflict  his  soul?  is  it  to  bow  down  his  head 
as  a  bulrush,  and  to  spread  sackcloth  and  ashes 
under  him?  wilt  thou  call  this  a  fast,  and  an  ac- 
ceptable day  to  the  Lord  ? 

Is  not  this  the  fast  that  I  have  chosen?  to  loose 
the  bands  of  wickedness,  to  undo  the  heavy  bur- 
dens, and  to  let  the  oppressed  go  free,  and  that  ye 
break  every  yoke? 

Is  it  not  to  deal  thy  bread  to  the  hungry,  and 
that  thou  bring  the  poor  that  are  cast  out  to  thy 
house?  when  thou  seest  the  naked,  that  thou  cover 
him;  and  that  thou  hide  not  thyself  from  thine 
own  flesh? 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  277 

Then  shall  thy  light  break  forth  as  the  morning, 
and  thine  health  shall  spring  forth  speedily :  and 
thy  righteousness  shall  go  before  thee;  the  glory 
of  the  Lord  shall  be  thy  reward. 

Then  shalt  thoti  call,  and  the  Lord  shall  answer; 
thou  shalt  cry,  and  he  shall  say,  Here  I  am.  If 
thou  take  away  from  the  midst  of  thee  the  yoke, 
the  putting  forth  of  the  finger,  and  speaking 
vanity ; 

And  if  thou  draw  out  thy  soul  to  the  hungry, 
and  satisfy  the  afflicted  soul ;  then  shall  thy  light 
rise  in  obscurity,  and  thy  darkness  be  as  the  noon 
day: 

And  the  Lord  shall  guide  thee  continually,  and 
satisfy  thy  soul  in  drought,  and  make  fat  thy  bones: 
and  thou  shalt  be  like  a  watered  garden,  and  like 
a  spring  of  water,  whose  waters  fail  not. 

And  they  that  shall  be  of  thee  shall  build  the 
old  waste  places:  thou  shalt  raise  up  the  founda- 
tions of  many  generations ;  and  thou  shalt  be  called, 
The  repairer  of  the  breach,  The  restorer  of  paths 
to  dwell  in. 

If  thou  turn  away  thy  foot  from  the  sabbath, 
from  doing  thy  pleasure  on  my  holy  day ;  and 
call  the  sabbath  a  delight,  the  holy  of  the  Lord, 
honourable ;  and  shalt  honour  him.  not  doing  thine 
own  ways,  nor  finding  thine  own  pleasure,  nor 
speaking  thine  own  words : 

Then  shalt  thou  delight  thyself  in  the  Lord;  and 
T  will  cause  thee  to  ride  upon  the  high  places  of 
the  earth,  and  feed  thee  with  the  heritage  of 
Jacob  thy  father:  for  the  mouth  of  the  Lord  hath 
spoken  it. 


278  MORNING    SERVICE    FOR 

After  the  Lesson  from  the  Prophets  the  following 
is  said: 

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  Rock  of  all  worlds,  righteous  through  all 
generations,  O  faithful  God,  Who  sayest  and 
doest,  Who  speakest  and  fulfillest,  all  Whose  words 
are  truth  and  righteousness.  Faithful  art  Thou,  O 
Lord  our  God,  and  faithful  are  Thy  words,  and 
not  one  of  Thy  words  shall  return  void,  for  Thou 
art  a  faithful  and  merciful  God  and  King.  Blessed 
art  Thou,  O  Lord,  God,  Who  art  faithful  in  all 
Thy  words. 

FOR  the  Law,  for  the  divine  service,  for  the 
prophets  and  for  this  Day  of  Atonement,  which 
Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  hast  given  us  for  forgive- 
ness, pardon  and  atonement,  for  honor  and  glory. 
—For  all  these  we  thank  and  bless  Thee,  O  Lord 
our  God,  blessed  be  Thy  name  by  the  mouth  of 
every  living  being  continually  and  for  ever;  Thy 
word  is  true  and  endureth  for  ever.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  Thou  King,  Who  pardonest  and 
forgivest  our  iniquities  and  the  iniquities  of  Thy 
people,  the  house  of  Israel,  and  makest  our  tres- 
passes to  pass  away  year  by  year;  King  over  the 
whole  earth,  \Yho  sanctifiest  Israel  and  the  Day 
of  Atonement,

our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and 
God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God, 
the  most  high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindness, 
and  possesses!  all  things ;  who  rememberest  the 
pious  deeds  of  the  patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring 
redemption  to  their  children's  children  for  Thy 
name's  sake. 

Choir: 

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  Thou  quick-

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest

286  ADDITIONAL    SERVICE    FOR 

Congregation  and  Reader  together: 
ON  THIS  day  of  Atonement,  which  is  distin- 
guished and  chosen  above  all  other  days,  have 
mercy  and  be  gracious  unto  those  who  realize  its 
meaning  and  silence  their  accusers.  On  this  day 
Israel  was  instructed  to  hasten  to  confess  in 
prayer,  to  remember  those  who  sleep  in  the  dust 
and  to  recall  the  merit  of  the  fathers ;  to  tell  of 
the  sacrifices  made  by  the  patriarchs  of  old  for  the 
sake  of  principle  and  for  their  faith.  The  memory 
of  all  of  them  has  been  treasured  up  by  Israel  to 
guide  them  onward  through  the  thicket  of  doubt 
to  pure  faith  and  trust  in  Thee. 

And  Thou  wilt  strengthen  the  hosts  of  them 
that  day  and  night  adore  and  worship  Thee ;  so 
that,  clean  in  conscience  and  pure  in  soul,  our 
prayers  may  reach  direct  to  Thee.  O  Most  High. 
Whose  works  are  truth,  Thou  wilt  surely  regard 
Thy  faithful  servants,  who  trustfully  come  unto 
Thee.  Yea,  as  Thou  art  merciful,  Thou  wilt  re- 
member Thy  servants  in  mercy.  O  grant  that 
when  iniquity  be  sought  for,  it  be  not  found  in 
us  or  in  any  of  Thy  children.  May  the  traces  of 
sin  be  obliterated  from  the  minds  of  men;  and 
mayest  Thou,  Who  art  the  upright  Advocate, 
justify  Thy  children  and  be  gracious  unto  them. 

Reader:  Grant  the  plea  of  Thy  servant,  O  merciful 
and  gracious  King. 

Cong.:  Redeem  those  who  ransom  their  souls  by 
repentance  that  they  sink  not  into  despair. 

Reader:  Revive  with  Thy  refreshing  dew.  those 
who  wait  for  Thee  in  contrition  and  hu- 
miliation. 

Cong.:  As  long  as  the  ?oul  of  man  is  within  him, 
the  merciful  God  awaits  the  penitence  of 
the  frail  creation  from  dust,  that  he  may 
live  and  improve  his  latter  end.

Who  is  gracious  and  merciful  to  His 
congregation.  He  will  return  with  mercy 
to  His  house,  to  those  who  enter  into 
His  covenant. 

Cony.:     Remember  ye  His  covenant  forever. 

Reader:  Extol  God,  the  omnipotent  God  of  the 
universe.  Whose  word  is  established  for- 
ever while  He  is  hidden  from  all.  We  will 
praise  His  name  forever. 

Cong.:  Blessed  be  the  Lord,  the  God  of  Israel, 
for  ever  and  ever. 

Reader  and  Choir: 

And  so  may  sanctification  ascend  unto  Thee; 
for  Thou  art  our  God,  a  king  of  pardon  and  for- 
giveness. 

Reader: 

We  will  ascribe  holiness  to  the  sanctity  of 
this  day,  for  it  is  one  of  reverence  and  awe. 
Thereon  is  Thy  dominion  exalted.  Thy  throne 
established  in  mercy  and  Thou  abidest  in  truth. 
Verily  it  is  Thou  alone  who  art  judge  and  arbiter, 
who  knowest  and  art  witness ;  Thou  writest 
down  and  settest  the  seal,  Thou  recordest  and 
tellest :  yea,  Thou  rememberest  forgotten  things. 
Thou  unfoldest  the  records,  and  the  deeds  therein 
inscribed  proclaim  themselves;  for  lo!  the  seal  of 
every  man's  hand  is  thereto  set.

dismayed  and  fear  and  trembling  seize  hold  on 
them,  as  they  proclaim:  BEHOLD  THE  DAY 
OF  JUDGMENT.  For  even  the  hosts  of  heaven 
are  arraigned  in  judgment,  since  in  Thine  eyes 
they  are  not  immaculate ;  and  all  who  enter  the 
world  Thou  causest  to  pass  before  Thee  as  sheep. 

As  a  shepherd  taketh  reckoning  of  his  flock, 
causing  them  to  pass  beneath  his  crook,  so  dost 
Thou  cause  to  pass,  and  number  and  visit  every 
living  soul,  fixing  the  limit  of  every  creature's  life 
and  appointing  their  destiny. 

Who  shall  live,  and  who  shall  die,  who  at  life's 
limit,  and  who  before  it ;  who  shall  have  repose 
and  who  unrest ;  who  shall  enjoy  comfort  and 
who  shall  be  harassed ;  whom  poverty  shall  op- 
press and  who  shall  be  rich  in  spirit :  who  shall 
lower  his  own  dignity  and  who  shall  be  honored 
of  men. 

Choir: 

But  repentance,  prayer  and  charity  avert  the 
evil  decree. 

As  is  Thy  name  sublime,  so  is  Thy  glory.  Thou 
art  slow  to  anger,  and  eager  to  pardon.  Thou 
desirest  not  the  death  of  Thy  creatures  but  that 
they  should  amend  their  ways  and  live ;  and  to 
their  dying  day  Thou  boldest  forth  hope  to  them 
that  they  may  return  and  be  received  of  Thee. 

Truly  Thou  art  their  creator;  thou  knowest 
their  nature  and  realisest  that  they  are  but  mor- 
tal. As  for  man,  he  riseth  from  the  dust  and 
returneth  unto  dust;  he  imperils  his  life  to  gain

awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with  a 
perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God, 
that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy  hand, 
and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy  name 
is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast  created.

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  Thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  Thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  Thee,  joy  to 
our  land,  gladness  to  our  city. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke, 
when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to 
pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  Thou  alone  over 
all  Thy  works,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  Holy  Word, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O  Zion, 
unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art 
Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

THOU  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  all 
peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy  unity 
and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name;  Thou 
hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments  and 
brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our  King,  and 
called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name.

They  that  keep  the  Sabbath  and  call  it  a  de- 
light shall  rejoice  in  Thy  kingdom ;  the  people 
that  hallow  the  seventh  day,  even  all  of  them 
shall  be  satiated  and  delighted  with  Thy  good- 
ness, seeing  that  Thou  didst  find  pleasure  in  the 
seventh  day,  and  didst  hallow  it ;  Thou  didst  call 
it  the  desirable  of  days,  in  remembrance  of  the 
creation.

It  is  a  duty  incumbent  upon  us  to  praise  the

through  faith  in  Him.

For  He  hath  stretched  out  the  heavens  and 
established  the  earth,  and  the  habitation  of  His 
glory  is  exalted  above  all.  He  is  our  God  and

the  Lord  He  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon 
the  earth  beneath  :  and  there  is  none  else."

300  ADDITIONAL    SERVICE    FOR 

TCcmpIe  Service. 

THOU,  O  God,  didst  establish  the  universe  and 
lay  the  foundations  of  the  earth.  By  Thine  al- 
mighty fiat  didst  Thou  fashion  order  out  of  chaos 
and  ordain  the  laws  by  which  creation  moves. 
Creatures  without  number  didst  Thou  form,  en- 
dowing them  with  instinct.  And  over  all  didst 
Thou  place  man  to  reflect  Thy  divine  wisdom  in 
the  operation  of  the  intelligent  principle  with  which 
Thou  didst  invest  him. 

Thus  in  successive  stages  is  unfolded  Thy  divine 
Self  as  the  consciousness  of  the  universe.  But,  in 
his  infancy,  man  could  not  comprehend  the  mag- 
nitude of  divine  intelligence  and  could  only  by 
progressive  degrees  grow  into  the  realization  of  its 
magnificence.  Thus  his  errors  become  his  in- 
structors ;  the  faults  of  the  past  are  the  founda- 
tion on  which  he  builds  his  strength.  Each  genera- 
tion perceives  the  crudeness  of  its  predecessor  and 
strives  to  expiate  the  faultiness  of  its  parent  gene- 
ration by  the  adoption  of  a  higher  standard  of 
life;  and,  in  turn,  bequeathes  its  errors  to  a  suc- 
ceeding generation  to  form  the  basis  of  a  new 
and  better  system. 

It  was  through  the  errors  of  primitive  man,  O 
Lord,  that  we,  Thy  creatures,  began  to  imitate 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  301 

Thee  and  to  establish  law  and  order  in  our  social 
system,  as  Thou  didst  establish  them  in  Thy 
world.  When  might  was  the  only  right,  and 
violence  the  only  law,  Thou  didst  cause  us  to  work 
our  own  salvation  by  recognizing  the  rights  of 
the  weak.  Even  then,  O  God,  our  want  of  wis- 
dom led  us  back  to  error  and  we  fashioned  images 
of  wood  and  stone  and  called  them  by  Thy  name. 
Groping  in  the  deep  darkness  of  our  stupidity,  we 
arrogated  to  ourselves  divine  right  and  ascribed 
divine  attribute  to  works  of  our  hands.  Then  did 
Thy  servant,  Abraham,  shine  forth  from  the  dark- 
ness to  teach  all  men  the  truth  that  Thou  art  One. 
He  took  upon  himself  the  obligation  to  proclaim 
Thy  unity  and  gave  it  solemnly  in  charge  to  his 
descendants  to  ever  perform  this  holy  mission. 
Being  consecrated  to  so  holy  a  service,  he  further 
admonished  his  children  to  maintain  the  cause  of 
justice  and  truth,  in  order  that  they  might  be  in- 
strumental in  bringing  nothing  but  good  to  the  rest 
of  mankind. 

Israel,  through  the  hardships  and  trials  that 
came  to  them  during  their  sojourn  in  Egypt,  for- 
got their  divine  mission ;  until  the  great  liberator, 
Moses,  arose  to  inspire  them  with  courage  anew. 
Then  did  they  burst  the  fetters  that  bound  them 
and,  at  Sinai,  entered  into  a  covenant  with  Thee  to 


302 


ADDITIONAL    SERVICE    FOR 


become  Thy  emissaries,  to  promulgate  the  doc- 
trine of  Thy  unity  and  to  minister  in  Thy  name 
to  all  mankind. 

In  Thine  infinite  wisdom  Thou  dost  select  from 
amongst  Thy  children  such  as  Thou  dost  design 
to  be  Thy  servants  to  the  sons  of  men  that  they 
may  instruct  them  in  Thy  ways  and  lead  them  on 
the  paths  of  righteousness.  Even  so  didst  Thou 
select  Israel  to  be  Thy  messengers  to  the  families 
of  the  earth,  that  they  might  teach  the  nations 
Thy  law,  and  draw  them  nearer  to  Thee.  Then 
didst  Thou  scatter  the  Levites  among  the  tribes  of 
Israel  to  prepare  Thy  people  for  the  holy  mission 
of  spreading  the  knowledge  of  Thee,  the  only  God, 
and  left  them  portionless  that  no  thought  of  ma- 
terial prosperity,  or  desire  for  gain  might  make 
them  recreant  to  their  duty. 

And  from  the  tribe  of  Levi,  the  family  of  Aaron 
was  chosen  to  fill  the  most  important  office  of  high 
priest,  whose  most  sacred  duty  it  was,  once  a  year, 
to  appear  before  Thine  august  presence,  and,  with 
promises  of  reparation  of  wrong?  done  by  the 
whole  nation,  make  atonement  for  them. 

Arrayed  in  garments  of  pure  white,  he  sym- 
bolized to  the  people  the  equality  of  all  men  before 
Thee,  O  Lord,  and  the  truth  that  clean  hearts  and 
pure  minds  are  alone  pleasing  to  Thee.  Realizing 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  303 

the  faultiness  of  all  and  that  even  the  greatest  of 
men  is  not  free  from  error,  he  proceeded  to  make 
atonement  for  himself  and  his  household.  Ac- 
knowledging our  own  imperfections  we  reverently 
and  devoutly  rise  and  utter  before  Thee  the  con- 
fession of  sins  made  by  the  high  priest  and  humbly 
and  penitently  implore  Thy  pardon. 

Rabbi  and  Congregation: 

O  LORD,  I  have  sinned  ;  T  have  done  iniquity  ;  I 
have  transgressed  against  Thee,  I  and  my  house- 
hold. By  Thy  divine  compassion  I  beseech  Thee 
to  pardon  the  sins,  iniquities  and  transgressions 
which  I  have  committed  against  Thee,  even  I  and 
my  household  as  it  is  written  in  the  law  of  Thy 
servant  Moses  :  "For  on  this  day  shall  He  make 
atonement  for  you  to  cleanse  you.  that  ye  may  be 
clean  from  all  your  sins  before  the  Lord."

304  ADDITIONAL    SERVICE    FOR 

THUS  did  the  high  priest  purge  himself  of  soul 
guilt  as  a  private  individual  and  make  atonement 
for  his  sins  and  the  sins  of  his  household,  and  so 
do  we  to-day,  O  God,  pray  Thee  to  strengthen  us 
so  that  we  may  be  enabled  to  correct  our  faults 
and  the  faults  of  those  under  our  care  that  dis- 
cord may  disappear  from  our  homes  and  happi- 
ness be  the  portion  of  those  who  dwell  beneath 
our  roof. 

The  high  priest  then  offered  supplication  on  be- 
half of  himself  in  his  official  capacity  and  on  behalf 
of  his  co-workers  in  Thy  holy  cause. 

We,  too,  beseech  Thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  be 
with  us  and  the  other  ministers  of  Thy  people 
Israel  who  stand  before  Thee  this  day  to  implore 
Thy  mercy  and  favor. 

O  make  them  understand  what  to  say ;  teach 
them  what  to  speak,  inspire  them  with  zeal  and 
grant  them  wisdom  to  conceive  and  strength  to  ut- 
ter the  truth  to  Thy  people  who  look  to  them  for 
guidance.  Let  them  not  fear  lest  they  lie  put  to 
shame  and  Thy  people  be  misled.  But  grant,  O 
Lord,  that  continuously  we  maintain  with  dignity 
and  honor  Thy  cause  and  the  cause  of  Thy  people 
Israel. 

Having  atoned  for  the  sins  of  the  Levites,  his 
fellow  ministers,  he  next  offered  fervent  prayer 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  305 

for  the  forgiveness  of  the  whole  Congregation. 
Taking  a  golden  censer,  he  cast  into  it  a  handful 
of  incense  and  placed  it  within  the  Holy  of 
Holies.  By  this  act  he  taught  that  Thou  regardest 
not  wealth  nor  takest  note  of  much  gold  but  only 
of  the  sweet  charity  that  the  wealthy  may  do  in 
Thy  service.  There  in  the  most  sacred  precinct 
of  the  Temple  and  as  he  regarded  himself  face  to 
face  with  Thy  divine  spirit,  he  made  atonement 
for  the  people  while  they  patiently  and  penitently 
stood  bowed  in  grief  for  their  sinfulness,  record- 
ing vows  of  amendment.  After  performing  this 
pious  duty,  he  returned  to  the  altar  and,  raising 
his  hands  to  heaven,  proceeded  to  utter  the  con- 
fession of  sin  for  the  whole  congregation. 

Rabbi  and  Congregation: 

O  LORD,  Thy  people  have  sinned,  transgressed 
and  trespassed  against  Thee.  I  invoke  Thy  divine 
grace  to  forgive  the  sins,  iniquities  and  transgres- 
sions of  all  Thy  people  and  of  the  house  of  Israel. 
Even  as  it  is  written  in  the  law  of  Thy  servant 
Moses:  For  on  this  day  shall  he  make  atonement 
for  you  to  cleanse  you,  that  ye  may  be  clean  from 
all  your  sins  before  the  Lord.

THE  service  being  concluded,  the  high  priest 
came  forth  to  mingle  with  the  people,  his  manner 
giving  evidence  of  the  great  spiritual  joy  he  felt. 
Assured  of  forgiveness,  the  assembled  multitude 
rejoiced  and  sang  songs  of  thanksgiving  to  Thee, 
O  God,  Who  pardonest  the  iniquities  of  those 
who  repent  and  return  unto  Thee. 

The  Temple  is  in  ruins  and  priests  no  more 
offer  sacrificial  victims  upon  altars.  Yet  are  we 
sure  of  Thy  divine  mercy  and  love  when  we  call 
upon  Thee  in  truth.  For  we  have  learned  to  inter- 
pret the  lessons  of  old  aright  and  understand  that 
it  is  not  in  sacrifice  or  burnt  offering  that  Thou 
delightest  but  in  hearkening  to  Thy  voice.  There- 
fore will  we  build  an  altar  on  the  contrition  of 
our  hearts  and  humble  our  spirits  within  us.  Cause 
us  to  rejoice  at  the  glad  tidings  of  forgiveness  and 
to  feel  that  though  our  sins  were  as  scarlet,  they 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  307 

have  become  white  as  snow ;  that  we  may  be 
decked  with  salvation  and  clad  with  righteousness. 
May  our  messenger,  the  holy  Day  of  Atonement, 
fulfil  our  desire  and  obtain  for  us  the  peace  of 
God,  so  that,  purified  from  all  uncleanliness  and 
cleared  from  all  taint,  we  may  go  forth  in  the 
consciousness  of  our  innocence.  Clinging  to  Thy 
right  hand  that  is  full  of  righteousness,  may  we 
be  upheld  and  supported  in  our  endeavors  to  rear 
temples  of  truth  and  to  blot  out  error  and  injus- 
tice from  the  Jives  of  men.  And  now,  O  Lord, 
our  God,  we  pray  Thee  as  did  the  high  priest  at 
the  conclusion  of  the  day: 

To  grant  that  the  year  upon  which  we  have  just 
entered  may  be  full  of  blessing  for  us  and  for  all 
Thy  creatures;  that  rain  may  everywhere  fall  in 
due  season  and  that  neither  famine  nor  pestilence 
may  afflict  the  sons  of  men.  May  nations  live  in 
amity  and  learn  to  adjust  their  differences  with- 
out appeal  to  arms.  May  no  widow  weep  for 
want  and  no  orphan  cry  to  Thee  for  aid.  May  the 
stranger  find  food  and  shelter  and  the  oppressed 
champions.  May  the  cause  of  justice  and  right 
ever  obtain  worthy  advocates.  Grant  that  in  the 
coming  year  we  may  uproot  vice  and  plant  virtue, 
tear  down  error  and  build  up  truth,  trample  down 
superstition  and  exalt  true  religion.  May  the 
ministrations  of  Thy  servant  Israel  be  recognized 
and  appreciated  by  all  the  peoples  of  the  earth  in 
order  that  all  men  may  know  that  Thou  alone  art 
God.  Amen.

young,  even  Thine  altars,  O  Lord  of  hosts,  my 
King,  and  my  God. 

Blessed  are  they  that  dwell  in  Thy  house:  they 
will  be  still  praising  Thee.  Selah. 

Blessed  is  the  man  whose  strength  is  in  Thee ; 
in  whose  heart  are  the  ways  of  them. 

Who  passing  through  the  valley  of  Baca  make 
it  a  well ;  the  rain  also  filleth  the  pools. 

They  go  from  strength  to  strength,  every  one 
of  them  in  Zion  appeareth  before  God. 

O  Lord  God  of  hosts,  hear  my  prayers:  give 
ear,  O  God  of  Jacob.  Selah. 

Behold,  O  God  our  shield,  and  look  upon  the 
face  of  Thine  anointed. 

For  a  day  in  Thy  courts  is  better  than  a  thou- 
sand. I  had  rather  be  a  doorkeeper  in  the  house 
of  my  God,  than  to  dwell  in  the  tents  of  wicked- 
ness. 

For  the  Lord  God  is  a  Sun  and  Shield :  the 
Lord  will  give  grace  and  glory:  no  good  thing  will 
He  withhold  from  them  that  walk  uprightly. 

O  Lord  of  hosts,  blessed  is  the  man  that  trust- 
eth  in  Thee. 

BLESSED  be  the  Lord,  Who  daily  loadeth  us  with 
benefits ;  for  He  is  the  God  of  our  salvation.  Selah. 
The  Lord  of  hosts  is  with  us;  the  God  of  Jacob 
is  our  Stronghold.  Selah.  Save  us,  O  Lord;  may 
the  King  answer  us  on  the  day  we  call.  Blessed

be  our  God,  Who  hath  created  us  for  His  glory 
and  separated  us  from  them  that  go  astray;  and 
hath  given  us  the  Law  of  truth  and  planted  ever- 
lasting life  within  us.  May  He  open  our  hearts 
unto  His  Law  and  fix  His  love  and  fear  within 
our  hearts,  that  we  may  do  His  will  and  serve 
Him  with  a  prefect  heart ;  so  that  we  may  not  labor 
in  vain  nor  bring  forth  mere  confusion.  May  it 
be  Thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  that  we  may  keep  Thy  statutes  in  this 
world  and  be  worthy  to  live  and  inherit  good  and 
blessing  in  our  days.  Blessed  is  the  man  that 
trusteth  in  the  Lord  and  whose  trust  is  the  Lord. 
Trust  ye  in  the  Lord  forever,  for  in  Jah  the  Lord, 
is  an  everlasting  Rock.  And  they  that  know  Thy 
name  will  put  their  trust  in  Thee ;  for  Thou  hast 
not  forsaken  them  that  seek  Thee,  O  Lord.  Be  ye 
then  of  good  courage  and  He  shall  strengthen  your 
heart,  all  ye  who  wait  for  the  Lord. 

Cantor  and  Choir: 

Psalm  24.  A  Psalm  of  David. 
THE  earth  is  the  Lord's,  and  the  fulness  thereof; 
the  world,  and  they  that  dwell  therein.  For  it  is 
He  that  hath  founded  it  upon  the  seas,  and  es- 
tablished it  upon  the  floods.  Who  may  ascend  the 
mountain  of  the  Lord?  And  who  may  stand  in 
His  holy  place?  He  that  hath  clean  hands  and  a 
pure  heart :  who  hath  not  set  his  desire  upon  van- 
ity, and  hath  not  sworn  deceitfully.  He  shall  re- 
ceive a  blessing  from  the  Lord,  and  righteousness 
from  the  God  of  his  salvation.  This  is  the  genera- 
tion of  them  that  seek  after  Him,  that  seek  Thy 
face,  O  God  of  Jacob!  Selah.  Lift  up

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the

and  hast  given  us  Thy  Law.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O 
Lord,  Who  givest  the  Law. 

Exodus  xxxiv.,  i,  10. 

AND  the  Lord  said  unto  Moses,  Hew  thee  two 
tables  of  stone  like  unto  the  first:  and  I  will  write 
upon  these  tables  the  words  that  were  in  the  first 
tables,  which  thou  breakest. 

And  be  ready  in  the  morning,  and  come  up  in 
the  morning  unto  mount  Sinai,  and  present  thy- 
self there  to  Me  in  the  top  of  the  mount. 

And  no  man  shall  come  up  with  thee,  neither 
let  any  man  be  seen  throughout  all  the  mount ; 
neither  let  the  flocks  nor*  herds  feed  before  that 
mount. 

And  he  hewed  two  tables  of  stone  like  unto  the 
first ;  and  Moses  rose  up  early  in  the  morning, 
and  went  up  unto  mount  Sinai,  as  the  Lord  had 
commanded  him,  and  took  in  his  hand  the  two 
tables  of  stone. 

And  the  Lord  descended  in  the  cloud,  and  stood 
with  him  there,  and  proclaimed  the  name  of  the 
Lord. 

And  the  Lord  passed  by  before  him,  and  pro-

claimed,  The  Lord,  The  Lord  God,  merciful  and 
gracious,  longsuffering,  and  abundant  in  goodness 
and  truth, 

Keeping  mercy  for  thousands,  forgiving 
iniquity  and  transgression  and  sin,  and  that  will 
by  no  means  clear  the  guilty;  visiting  the  iniquity 
of  the  fathers  upon  the  children,  and  upon  the  chil- 
dren's children,  unto  the  third  and  to  the  fourth 
generation. 

And  Moses  made  haste,  and  bowed  his  head 
toward  the  earth,  and  worshipped. 

And  he  said,  If  now  I  have  found  grace  in  Thy 
sight,  O  Lord,  let  my  Lord,  I  pray  Thee,  go  among 
us;  for  it  is  a  stiffnecked  people;  and  pardon  our 
iniquity  and  our  sin,  and  take  us  for  Thine  in- 
heritance. 

And  He  said,  Behold  I  make  a  covenant:  be- 
fore all  thy  people  I  will  do  marvels,  such  as  have 
not  been  done  in  all  the  earth,  nor  in  any  nation : 
and  all  the  people  among  which  thou  art  shall  see 
the  work  of  the  Lord :  for  it  is  a  terrible  thing  that 
I  will  do  with  thee. 

After  the  Reading  of  a  Section  of  the  Law,  the

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the

Before  the  Lesson  from  the  Prophets,  the 

folloicing  is  said: 

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, Who  hast  chosen  good  prophets,  and  hast 
found  pleasure  in  their  words  which  were  spoken 
in  truth. 

Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  hast  chosen  the 
Law,  and  Moses  Thy  servant,  and  Israel  Thy 
people,  and  prophets  of  truth  and  righteousness. 

Reading  of  Haphtharah: 
(Jonah  iii.) 

AND  the  word  of  the  Lord  came  unto  Jonah  the 
second  time,  saying, 

Arise,  go  unto  Nineveh,  that  great  city,  and 
preach  unto  it  the  preaching  that  I  bid  thee. 

So  Jonah  arose,  and  went  unto  Nineveh,  accord- 
ing to  the  word  of  the  Lord.  Now  Nineveh  was 
an  exceeding  great  city  of  three  days'  journey. 

And  Jonah  began  to  enter  into  the  city  a  day's 
journey,  and  he  cried,  and  said,  Yet  forty  days, 
and  Nineveh  shall  be  overthrown. 

So  the  people  of  Nineveh  believed  God,  and  pro- 
claimed a  fast,  and  put  on  sackcloth,  from  the 
greatest  of  them  even  to  the  least  of  them. 

For  word  came  unto  the  king  of  Nineveh,  and 
he  arose  from  his  throne,  and  he  laid  his  robe 
from  him,  and  covered  him  with  sackcloth,  and  sat 
in  ashes. 

And  he  caused  it  to  be  proclaimed  and  pub- 
lished through  Nineveh  by  the  decree  of  the  king 
and  his  nobles,  saying.  Let  neither  man  nor  beast, 
herd  nor  flock,  taste  any  thing:  let  them  not  feed, 
nor  drink  water: 

But  let  man  and  beast  be  covered  with  sack- 
cloth, and  cry  mightily  unto  God:  yea,  let  them 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  345 

turn  every  one  from  his  evil  way,  and  from  the 
violence  that  is  in  their  hands. 

Who  can  tell  if  God  will  turn  and  repent,  and 
turn  away  from  His  fierce  anger,  that  we  perish 
not? 

And  God  saw  their  works,  that  they  turned 
from  their  evil  way;  and  God  repented  of  the  evil, 
that  He  had  said  that  He  would  do  unto  them; 
and  He  did  it  not. 

But  it  displeased  Jonah  exceedingly,  and  he  was 
very  angry. 

And  he  prayed  unto  the  Lord,  and  said,  I  pray 
Thee,  O  Lord,  was  not  this  my  saying,  when  I 
was  yet  in  my  country?  Therefore  I  fled  before 
unto  Tarshish:  for  I  knew  that  Thou  art  a  gra- 
cious God,  and  merciful,  slow  to  anger,  and  of 
great  kindness,  and  repentest  Thee  of  the  evil. 

Therefore,  now  O  Lord,  take,  I  beseech  Thee,  my 
life  from  me;  for  it  is  better  for  me  to  die  than 
to  live. 

Then  said  the  Lord,  Doest  thou  well  to  be 
angry? 

So  Jonah  went  out  of  the  city,  and  sat  on  the 
east  side  of  the  city,  and  there  made  him  a  booth, 
and  sat  under  it  in  the  shadow,  till  he  might  see 
what  would  become  of  the  city. 

And  the  Lord  God  prepared  a  gourd,  and  made 
it  to  come  up  over  Jonah,  that  it  might  be  a 
shadow  over  his  head,  to  deliver  him  from  his 
grief.  So  Jonah  was  exceeding  glad  of  the  gourd. 
But  God  prepared  a  worm  when  the  morning  rose 
the  next  day,  and  it  smote  the  gourd  that  it 
withered. 

And  it  came  to  pass,  when  the  sun  did  arise, 
that  God  prepared  a  vehement  east  wind  ;  and  the 
sun  beat  upon  the  head  of  Jonah,  that  he  fainted, 


346  AFTERNOON    SERVICE    FOR 

and  wished  in  himself  to  die,  and  said,  It  is  better 
for  me  to  die  than  to  live. 

And  God  said  to  Jonah,  Doest  thou  well  to  be 
angry  for  the  gourd?  And  he  said,  I  do  well  to 
be  angry,  even  unto  death. 

Then  said  the  Lord,  Thou  hast  had  pity  on  the 
gourd,  for  the  which  thou  hast  not  laboured, 
neither  madest  it  grow ;  which  came  up  in  a  night, 
and  perished  in  a  night: 

And  should  not  I  spare  Nineveh,  that  great  city, 
wherein  are  more  than  sixscore  thousand  persons 
that  cannot  discern  between  their  right  hand  and 
their  left  hand;  and  also  much  cattle? 


After   reading   the  Haphtharah,   the  following   is 
said: 

BLESSED  art  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  Rock  of  all  worlds,  righteous  through 
all  generations,  O  faithful  God,  Who  sayest  and 
doest,  Who  speakest  and  fulfillest,  all  Whose 
words  are  truth  and  righteousness. 

On  Returning  the  ")5D  to  the  Ark  the  Reader  says  :  — 


LET  them  praise  the  name  of  the  Lord  ;  for  His 
name  alone  is  exalted  : 

Congregation: 


His  glory  is  above  the  earth  and  heaven  :  He  also 
exalteth  the  horn  of  His  people,  to  the  praise  of 
all  His  saints,  even  of  the  children  of  Israel,  a 
people  near  unto  Him.  Praise  ye  the  Lord.

Is  there  any  mind  that  can  comprehend  Thee  or 
any  eye  that  can  see  Thee?  With  whom  didst 
Thou  take  counsel  that  he  might  teach  Thee,  when

Thine  abundantly  testifieth  that  there  is  none  be-

and  the  tongue  tires  in  telling  of  Thee.  The 
thoughts  of  the  wise  are  bewildered  and  the  ex- 
planations of  the  intelligent  are  lacking.  Thou  art 
called  tremendous  in  praises  yet  art  Thou  exalted 
above  all  praises.  O  Omnipotent,  how  exceeding 
wonderful  art  Thou.  Though  Thou  art  every- 
where, none  comprehend  Thee  and  none  can  see 
Thee.  Only  Thy  works  can  be  searched  out  and 
Thy  faithfulness  to  the  assembly  of  the  righteous 
ones.  As  for  Thy  righteousness  it  has  been  heard 
of  and  Thy  Law  has  been  made  known.  The  way 
to  Thee  is  nigh  to  the  penitent,  but  distant  from 
the  perverse.  The  pure  of  soul  have  seen  Thee; 
they  have  heard  Thee  with  their  intellect  and  con-

In  trembling  and  awe  we  come  before  Thcc  to 
crave  Thy  pardon.  O  Thou  Who  art  exalted  in 
mercy,  forgive  us.  Do  not  mete  out  unto  us  strict 
justice,  for  we  are  but  dust  and  ashes.  If  we 
have  erred  and  the  sin  is  veiled  from  us  judge  not 
as  if  we  had  sinned  with  intent  but  listen  with 
favor  to  our  confession.  Pardon  us  this  day  our 
sins,  whether  known  or  unknown  to  us,  whether 
committed  presumptuously  or  in  ignorance,  and 
have  compassion  upon  this  clay,  the  work  of  Thy

harmful  inclination  of  our  hearts,  O  Thou  Who 
knowest  our  frailties,  let  Thy  compassion  support 
us  and  suffer  not  our  sins  to  destroy  us.  We  have 
made  confession  of  our  transgressions  unto  Thee, 
O  Thou  Who  searchest  the  heart,  deliver  us  from 
sin,  purify  us  from  iniquity  and  strengthen  us  in 
our  resolve  to  sin  no  more.  Let  Thy  grace  en- 
compass us  and  Thy  love  support  us  for  the  sake 
of  Thy  holy  name.  Amen.

A    PRAYER   OF   DAVID. 

Bow  down  Thine  ear,  O  Lord,  hear  me:  for  I 
am  poor  and  needy. 

Preserve  my  soul  ;  for  I  am  holy  :  O  Thou  my 
God,  save  Thy  servant  that  trusteth  in  Thee. 

Be  merciful  unto  me,  O  Lord:  for  I  cry  unto 
Thee  daily. 

Rejoice  the  soul  of  Thy  servant;  for  unto  Thee, 
O  Lord,  do  I  lift  up  my  soul. 

For  Thou,  Lord,  art  good,  and  ready  to  forgive; 
and  plenteous  in  mercy  unto  all  them  that  call 
upon  Thee. 

Give  ear.  O  Lord,  unto  my  prayer;  and  attend 
to  the  voice  of  my  supplications. 

In  the  day  of  my  trouble  I  will  call  upon  Thee: 
for  Thou  wilt  answer  me.

Among  the  gods  there  is  none  like  unto  Thee, 
O  Lord;  neither  are  there  any  works  like  unto 
Thy  works. 

All  nations  whom  Thou  hast  made  shall  come 
and  worship  before  Thee,  O  Lord ;  and  shall 
glorify  Thy  name. 

For  Thou  art  great,  and  doest  wondrous  things: 
Thou  art  God  alone. 

Teach  me  Thy  way,  O  Lord ;  I  will  walk  in  Thy 
truth:  unite  my  heart  to  fear  Thy  name. 

I  will  praise  Thee,  O  Lord  my  God,  with  all 
my  heart:  and  I  will  glorify  Thy  name  for  ever- 
more. 

For  great  is  Thy  mercy  toward  me:  and  Thou 
hast  delivered  my  soul  from  the  lowest  hell. 

O  God,  the  proud  are  risen  against  me,  and  the 
assemblies  of  violent  men  have  sought  after  my 
soul ;  and  have  not  set  Thee  before  them. 

But  Thou,  O  Lord,  art  a  God  full  of  compassion, 
and  gracious,  longsuffering,  and  plenteous  in  mercy 
and  truth. 

O  turn  unto  me,  and  have  mercy  upon  me;  give 
Thy  strength  unto  Thy  servant,  and  save  the  son 
of  Thine  handmaid. 

Shew  me  a  token  for  good ;  that  they  which  hate 
me  may  see  it.  and  be  ashamed :  because  Thou, 
Lord,  hast  holpen  me,  and  comforted  me.

even  though  my  lips  express  it  not. 

Cong.:  To  be  enshrined  in  Thy  glory  I  crave  for 
a  moment  ere  I  die;  would  that  my  peti- 
tion were  granted. 

Reader:  As  for  the  rest,  I  would  then  commend 
my  spirit  to  Thy  care  and  sleep  and  sweet 
to  me  would  be  my  sleep. 

Cong..:  If  I  depart  from  Thee,  my  life  is  as 
death;  but  if  I  cling  unto  Thee,  even  in 
death  I  live. 

Reader:  But  alas!  I  know  not  with  what  to  ap- 
proach Thee  or  how  to  render  Thee 
service  or  what  may  be  my  duty.

Cong.:  Or  how  can  my  heart  rejoice  in  the 
present  good,  when  I  know  not  what  may 
befall  me  to-morrow? 

Reader:  The  fleeting  days  and  nights  conspire  to 
consume  me ;  one  part  of  me  is  dispersed 
in  the  air  and  the  other  part  is  reduced 
to  dust. 

Cong.:  \Yhat  more  can  I  say  when  my  passions 
pursue  me  like  an  enemy  from  youth 
even  to  old  age. 

Reader:  What  profit  can  I  gain  without  Thy 
favor?  And  if  Thou  be  not  my  portion, 
what  have  I  ?

Thy  righteousness  alone  is  my  covering.

when  all  my  desire  is  toward  Thee,  O 
Lord!

hast  need  of  him.

in  healing  for  the  maintenance  of  life.

FATHER  of  mercy!     In  Thy  hand  are  the  souls 

of  the  living  and   the  dead.     May  Thy  comforts 

soothe  our  hearts  as  we  remember  on  this  sacred 

day  our  revered  and  beloved  kin  folk  who  have  gone 

to  their  eternal  rest,  and  as  we  think  of  our  dear 

parents,   the  crown  of  our  heads   and   our  glory, 

whose  desire  it  was  to  train  us  in  the  way  of  virtue 

and    righteousness,   to   teach   us   Thy    statutes   and 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  35P 

precepts,  and  to  instruct  us  to  do  justice  and  to 
love  mercy.  We  beseech  Thee,  O  Lord!  grant  us 
strength  to  remain  faithful  to  their  teachings,  while 
the  breath  given  of  Thee  is  within  us.  And  may 
their  souls  repose  in  the  land  of  life,  beholding  Thy 
majesty  and  delighting  in  Thy  reward. 

AND  now,  O  good  and  beneficent  God!  what  shall 
we  say,  what  shall  we  speak  unto  Thee?  Our  needs 
are  so  manifold:  we  cannot  declare  them.  We  are 
filled  with  shame  as  we  think  of  all  the  goodness 
Thou  hast  dealt  unto  us.  O  turn  Thou  in  mercy 
and  lovingkindness  unto  the  supplications  of  Thy 
servants  who  now  pour  out  their  souls  before  Thee. 
May  Thy  lovingkindness  not  depart  from  us.  Give 
us  our  daily  sustenance  and  let  us  not  be  in  need  of 
the  gifts  of  flesh  and  blood.  Remove  from  us  care 
and  sorrow,  distress  and  fear,  shame  and  contempt. 
Strengthen  us  in  our  reverence  for  Thee,  and  fortify 
us  to  keep  Thy  perfect  law.  Vouchsafe  unto  us  the 
joy  of  training  our  sons  and  daughters  to  keep  Thy 
commandments  and  to  perform  Thy  will  all  the  days 
of  their  life.  O  God,  take  us  not  hence  in  the  midst 
of  our  days.  Let  us  complete  in  peace  the  number 
of  our  years.  Verily,  we  know  that  our  life  is  frail, 
that  our  days  are  as  a  handbreadth.  Therefore  help 
us,  O  God  of  our  Salvation,  to  live  before  Thee  in 
truth  and  uprightness  during  the  years  of  our  pil- 
grimage. And  when  it  will  please  Thee  to  take  us 
from  earth,  be  Thou  with  us;  and  may  our  souls

PRAYER  IN  MEMORY  OF  DEPARTED 
PARENTS. 

May  God  remember  the  soul  of  my  honored 
father  (mother ),  who  has  gone  to  his  (her)  eternal 
home.  O  let  his  (her)  soul  be  bound  up  in  the  bond 
of  life,  and  may  he  (she)  rest  in  honor,  with  full- 
ness of  joy  in  Thy  presence,  with  pleasures  at  Thy 
right  hand  for  evermore.  Amen. 

May  it  be  Thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  subdue 
our  vicious  inclinations  and  to  hide  Thy  face  from 
our  sins  and  trespasses.  O  take  us  not  hence  in 
the  midst  of  our  days  until  we  have  prepared  for 
our  journey,  and  for  the  day  of  our  departure. 
For,  were  we  to  leave  it  as  we  came  into  it,  and  re- 
turn to  the  place  of  our  origin  as  we  came  forth, 
wherefore  were  we  created?  Was  it  only  to  behold 
trouble?  It  were  better  for  us  never  to  have  been 
born  than  to  have  come  hither  to  multiply  sin.  O 
God,  we  beseech  Thee,  judge  us  in  mercy  and  not 
in  anger,  lest  Thou  shouldst  reduce  us  to  naught. 
For  what  is  man,  that  Thou  shouldst  judge  him  ? 
Only  a  fleeting  breath  placed  in  the  balance — and 
what  will  it  avail  to  weigh  the  air?  From  the  first 
day  of  his  existence,  man  is  dependent  and  needy, 
"stricken,  smitten  of  God  and  afflicted."  In  his 
youth  he  is  like  chaff,  floating  on  the  air ;  and  at 
his  latter  end,  he  is  like  straw  driven  by  the  wind. 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  361 

In  his  life  he  is  like  a  withered  herb — and  will  God 
seek  that  which  is  driven  to  and  fro?  From  the 
day  of  his  birth,  his  night  is  sorrow  and  his  day 
wailing;  if  he  is  exalted  to-day,  to-morrow  he  may 
be  destroyed.  Even  mere  chaff  may  move  him  on 
and  a  thorn  sorely  woundeth  him.  If  he  is  satiated, 
he  may  become  wicked ;  and  if  he  is  hungry,  he 
will  sin  for  a  loaf  of  bread.  He  is  swifter  than 
the  eagle  in  the  pursuit  after  riches  and  he  forgets 
that  death  pursues  him.  In  time  of  trouble,  he 
multiplies  his  prayers ;  he  uses  smooth  words  and 
is  most  liberal  with  his  vows.  But  when  enlarged, 
he  breaks  his  word  and  forgets  his  vows.  He 
places  guards  on  every  side  while  death  lies  in  wait 
in  his  very  chamber.  He  cometh  into  the  world 
and  knoweth  not  whence ;  he  rejoiceth,  but  knoweth 
not  wherefore ;  he  liveth.  but  knoweth  not  how  long. 
In  youth  he  follows  his  stubborn  ways ;  and  when 
"the  spirit  of  the  Lord  begins  to  stir  him  up,"  he 
endeavors  to  collect  substance  and  wealth.  'Then 
he  forsakes  his  native  place  and  traverses  oceans 
and  continents ;  he  treads  arid  deserts  and  endangers 
his  life  for  gold.  And  when  he  imagines  that  his 
glory  is  great  and  that  he  has  obtained  opulence 
and  peace,  disaster  comes  upon  him  and  lo — it  is 
gone.  He  is  continually  subject  to  trouble  and  to 
the  vicissitudes  of  life  and  his  days  are  full  of 
dread.  If  he  be  in  peace,  suddenly  calamity  over- 
take him.  He  loses  his  life  in  war  or  by  accident 
or  sickness  makes  his  life  a  bunion  unto  him.  And 
when  his  infirmities  increase,  youth  mocks  him  and 


362  MEMORIAL    SERVICE    FOR 

infants  rule  him;  he  becomes  a  burden  to  his  off- 
spring and  his  associates  forget  him.  When  his 
time  comes,  he  passes  from  his  house  to  the  eternal 
abode  and  from  the  shadow  of  his  home  to  the 
shadow  of  death. 

When  then  may  man,  subject  to  all  these  vicis- 
situdes, repent  him  of  his  sins  and  establish  a  good 
name,  ere  he  go  hence  and  be  no  more?  The  day 
is  short;  the  work  is  great  and  the  master  presses. 
Therefore,  O  God,  seeing  that  all  things  in  life  are 
so  uncertain  and  that  in  our  finiteness  the  future  is 
always  veiled  from  us,  do  Thou  cause  us  ever  to 
feel  that  our  beloved  ones  who  have  gone  from 
us  are  at  rest  and  in  peace ;  and  that  beneath  the 
shadow  of  Thine  almighty  protection,  their  souls  are 
enshrined  in  holiness.  Fill  our  hearts  with  a  de- 
termination to  requite  the  goodness  of  our  earthly 
parents  in  the  performance  of  kindly  acts  to  all 
mankind  done  in  the  name  of  Thee,  our  Heavenly 
Father.  Recalling  the  many  sacrifices  they  have 
made  for  us  and  their  earnest  solicitude  for  our 
spiritual,  moral  and  material  welfare,  may  we  be 
strengthened  faithfully  to  perform  our  duty  to  the 
children  Thou  hast  in  Thy  mercy  given  us.  May 
the  recollection  of  their  love  and  anxiety  awaken  in 
us  pious  emotions.  Amen. 

Reader:  Court  not  death  in  the  error  of  your  life. 
Cong.:  Neither  draw  upon  yourselves  destruction 

by  the  works  of  your  hands. 
Reader:  For  God  delighteth  not  when  the   living

Cong.:  For  He  created  all  things  that  they  might 
have  being.  And  there  is  no  poison  of 
destruction  in  them. 

Reader:  For  righteousness  is  immortal.  But  un- 
godly men,  by  their  hands  and  their  words, 
call  death  unto  them. 

Cong.:  The  souls  of  the  righteous  are  in  the  hands 
of  God.  And  no  torment  shall  touch 
them. 

Reader:  In  the  eyes  of  the  foolish  they  seemed  to 
have  died. 

Cong.:  And  their  departure  was  accounted  to  be 
their  hurt. 

Reader:  And  their  journeying  away  from  us  to  be 
their  ruin. 

Cong.:     But  they  are  in  peace. 

Reader:  For  even  if,  in  the  sight  of  men,  they  be 
punished. 

Cong.:     Their  hope  is  full  of  immortality. 

Reader:  And  having  borne  a  little  chastening,  they 
shall  receive  great  good. 

Cong.:  Because  God  made  trial  of  them  and  found 
them  worthy  of  Himself. 

Reader:  As  gold  in  the  furnace  He  proved  them. 

Cong.:  And  in  the  time  of  their  visitation,  they 
shall  shine  forth  as  sparks  among  stubble. 

Reader:  The  Lord  shall  reign  over  them  for  ever- 
more: 

Cong.:  And  they  that  trust  in  Him  shall  under- 
stand truth. 


364  MEMORIAL    SERVICE    FOR 

Reader:  The  faithful  shall  abide  with  Him  in  love. 
Cong.:     Because  grace  and  mercy   are  to  the  up- 
right. 

Thou,  O  God,  art  the  dispenser  of  life  and 
death.  Thou  guidest  the  footsteps  of  men  and 
ordainest  the  destinies  of  nations.  Thou  bringest 
our  forms  to  the  grave  and  raisest  our  souls  to 
immortal  life.  Through  the  portals  of  the  tomb 
we  pass  to  Thine  august  presence  to  render  Thee 
an  account  of  our  deeds  while  here  upon  earth. 
When  we  die  our  wealth  goeth  not  with  us  nor 
does  the  fame  we  have  attained  accompany  us. 

But  in  Thy  divine  mercy  Thou  hast  provided 
us  the  means  of  obtaining  grace  and  favor  in  Thy 
sight.  Thou  hast  sent  Thy  prophets  to  instruct 
us  and  they,  inspired  by  Thy  wisdom,  have  taught 
us  the  things  we  may  do  to  render  us  acceptable 
to  Thee — to  do  justice,  to  love  mercy  and  to  walk 
humbly  before  Thee;  to  safeguard  judgment  and 
do  righteously ;  to  care  for  the  sick  and  suffering ; 
to  support  the  widow  and  rear  the  orphan  ;  to  love 
the  stranger  and  to  release  the  prisoner  from  the 
prison  house ;  to  clothe  the  naked,  feed  the 
hungry  and  shelter  the  homeless.  He  that  doeth 
these  things  with  a  free  and  full  heart  because 
of  Thee,  for  him  hast  Thou  treasured  up  beati- 
tude and  the  reward  of  eternal  remembrance 
among  the  sons  of  men. 

Reader:  As  the  hart  panteth  after  the  water  brooks, 
so  panteth  my  soul  after  Thee,  O  God. 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT 


365 


Cong.:  My  soul  thirsteth  for  God,  for  the  living 
God :  when  shall  I  come  and  appear  before 
God? 

Reader:  My  tears  have  been  my  meat  day  and  ni^ht, 
while  they  continually  say  unto  me,  Where 
is  thy  God  ? 

Cong.:  When  I  remember  these  things,  I  pour  out 
my  soul  in  me:  for  I  had  gone  with  the 
multitude,  I  went  with  them  to  the  house 
of  God,  with  the  voice  of  joy  and  praise, 
with  a  multitude  that  kept  holyday. 

Reader:  Wrhy  art  thou  cast  down,  O  my  soul?  and 
why  art  thou  disquieted  in  me?  hope  thou 
in  God :  for  I  shall  yet  praise  Him  for  the 
help  of  His  countenance. 

Cong.:  O  my  God,  my  soul  is  cast  down  within  me: 
therefore  will  I  remember  Thee  from  the 
land  of  Jordan,  and  of  the  Hermonites, 
from  the  hill  of  Mizar. 

Reader:  Deep  calleth  unto  deep  at  the  noise  of  Thy 
waterspouts :  all  Thy  waves  and  Thy  bil- 
lows are  gone  over  me. 

Cong.:  Yet  the  Lord  will  command  His  lovingkind- 
ness  in  the  daytime,  and  in  the  night  His 
song  shall  be  with  me,  and  my  prayer  unto 
the  God  of  my  life. 

Reader:  I  will  say  unto  God  my  rock,  Why  hast 
Thou  forgotten  me?  why  go  I  mourning 
because  of  the  oppression  of  the  enemy? 


366  MEMORIAL    SERVICE    FOR 

Cong.:  As  with  a  sword  in  my  bones,  mine  enemies 
reproach  me ;  while  they  say  daily  unto  me, 
Where  is  thy  God? 

Reader:  Why  art  thou  cast  down,  O  my  soul?  and 
why  art  thou  disquieted  within  me?  hope 
thou  in  God:  for  I  shall  yet  praise  Him, 
who  is  the  health  of  my  countenance,  and 
my  God. 

Choir. 
From  Psalm  49. 

Reader:  Hear  this,  all  ye  people ;  give  ear,  all  ye  in- 
habitants of  the  world. 

Cong.:     Both  low  and  high,  rich  and  poor,  together. 

Reader:  My  mouth  shall  speak  of  wisdom  ;  and  the 
meditation  of  my  heart  shall  be  of  under- 
standing. 

Cong.:  Wherefore  should  I  fear  in  the  days  of 
evil,  when  the  iniquity  of  them  that  would 
supplant  me  compasseth  me  about? 

Reader:  They  that  trust  in  their  wealth,  and  boast 
themselves  in  the  multitude  of  their  riches ; 

Cong.:  None  of  them  can  by  any  means  redeem 
his  brother,  nor  give  to  God  a  ransom  for 
him. 

Reader:  For  he  seeth  that  wise  men  die,  likewise 
the  fool  and  the  brutish  person  perish,  and 
leave  their  wealth  to  others. 

Cong^:  Their  inward  thought  is  that  their  houses 
shall  continue  for  ever,  and  their  dwelling 
places  to  all  generations. 


THE  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT  367 

Reader:  But  God  will  redeem  my  soul   from  the 

power  of  the  grave:  for  He  shall  receive 

me. 
Cong.:     Be  not  thou  afraid  when  one  is  made  rich, 

when  the  glory  of  his  house  is  increased: 
Reader:  Man  that  is  in  honor,  and  understandeth 

not,  is  like  the  beasts  that  perish.

WHERE  shall  wisdom  be  found?  And  where  is 
the  place  of  understanding?  Happy  is  the  man  that 
findeth  wisdom  and  the  man  that  getteth  under- 
standing. How  great  is  Thy  goodness  which  Thou 
hast  treasured  up  for  those  that  fear  Thee,  which 
Thou  hast  wrought  for  those  that  trust  in  Thee! 
How  excellent  is  Thy  lovingkindness,  O  God  !  Thou 
shelterest  the  children  of  men  under  the  shadow  of 
Thy  wings.  Thou  satisfies!  them  abundantly  with 
the  richness  of  Thy  house  and  causest  them  to  drink 
of  the  stream  of  Thy  delights. 

A  good  name  is  better  than  precious  ointment  : 
and  the  clay  of  death  than  the  day-  of  one's  birth. 

Let  us  hear  the  conclusion  of  the  whole  matter: 


368 


MEMORIAL   SERVICE   FOR 


Fear  God,  and  keep  his  commandments:  for  this  is 
the  whole  duty  of  man. 

O  Lord  and  Father,  with  feelings  of  reverence  and 
love,  we  recall  to-day  the  memory  of  those  dear  to 
us,  who  in  Thine  almighty  wisdom  have  been  called 
away  from  this  earth.  May  the  recollection  of  their 
good  deeds  arouse  us  to  the  performance  of 
righteous  and  noble  acts ;  and  as  we  rehearse  their 
names  to-day,  may  we  unfalteringly  place  reliance 
upon  Thy  fatherly  affection,  that  Thou  wilt  cherish 
their  souls  in  eternal  life. 

(The  names  of  the  departed  may  be  mentioned 
here,) 

(Psalm  121.) 
Reader:  I  will  lift  up  mine  eyes  unto  the  hills,  from 

whence  cometh  my  help. 
Cong.:    My   help   cometh    from   the   Lord,   which 

made  heaven  and  earth. 
Reader:  He  will  not  suffer  thy  foot  to  be  moved: 

He  that  keepeth  thee  will  not  slumber. 
Cong.:    Behold  He  that  keepeth  Israel  shall  neither 

slumber  nor  sleep. 
Reader:  The  Lord  is  thy  keeper:  the  Lord  is  thy 

shade  upon  Thy  right  hand. 
Cong.:    The  sun  shall  not  smite  thee  by  day,  nor 

the  moon  by  night. 
Reader:  The  Lord  shall  preserve  thee  from  all  evil : 

He  shall  preserve  thy  soul. 
Cong.:    The  Lord  shall  preserve  thy  going  out  and 

thy  coming  in   from  this  time  forth,  and 

even  for  evermore.

RESPONSIVE  READING. 

Rabbi:  My  God,  judge  me  not  according  to  my 
trespasses,  nor  mete  out  punishment  ac- 
cording to  my  deeds. 

Cong.:  But  through  Thy  kindness  grant  that  I 
live,  and  chastise  me  not  as  I  have  de- 
served. 

Rabbi:  I  will  humble  the  pride  of  my  soul;  and 
in  my  grief  I  will  rend  not  my  garment 
but  my  heart. 

Cong.:  Faint  of  heart  and  grief  stricken  for  my 
sins  and  my  follies  do  I  now  stand  before 
Thee. 

Rabbi:  I  am  overcome  with  sorrow,  for  I  have 
strayed  from  Thee. 

Cong.:  What  can  I  answer,  to  whom  turn  for 
help,  in  the  day  of  judgment?  Whither 
shall  I  flee?  Who  will  intercede  for' me? 

Rabbi:  My  arrogance  stares  me  in  the  face  and 
is  constantly  before  me;  my  shame  is  all 
about  me. 

Cong.:  Were  my  innermost  thoughts  revealed  to 
my  neighbors  they  would  flee  from  me. 

Rabbi:  The  heart  within  me  is  still  perverse,  and 
prone  to  sin.

Cong,:  To  Thee,  O  Lord,  I  now  address  my

and  prepare  my  path. 

Cong.:  Pardon  my  iniquity  and  direct  my  heart 
which  hath  strayed  from  good. 

Rabbi:  Answer  my  cry  when  I  knock  at  Thy 
gates,  heal  my  wound  and  soothe  my  pain. 

Cong.:  O  Thou  Who  art  the  balm  of  all  sor- 
rows, Thou  causest  my  heart  to  rejoice 
even  amidst  sighing  and  mourning. 

Rabbi:  Dejected,  powerless,  and  humiliated  do  I 
now  appear  before  Thee  entreating  Thy 
pardon. 

Cong.:  O  Lord,  Thy  memory  is  constantly  in  my 
heart  and  in  my  thoughts  both  night  and 
day. 

Rabbi:  Have  mercy,  O  Lord,  pardon  our  tran>- 
gressions  and  accept  our  prayers. 

Cong.:  Guide  me  through  life  and  sustain  me  in

Thy  name's  sake.

As   it  is  written  by  the  hand  of  Thy  prophet, 
And  they  called  one  unto  the  other  and  said, 
Cong.:     Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts:  the

against  them  say,  Blessed —

claim with  constancy  the  unity  of  His

our  King;  He  is  our  Saviour;  and  He 
of  His  mercy  will  let  us  hear  a  second

God  and  King.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O 
Lord,  the  holy  God. 

(Congregation  Sitting) 

FOR  with  Thy  holiness,  Thou  hast  sanctified 
them  that  proclaim  Thy  holiness.  Becoming  unto 
the  holy  One  is  the  glory  of  His  pious  servants. 
If  there  be  no  advocate  of  righteousness  to  plead 
against  the  accuser,  do  Thou,  Thyself,  instruct 
Jacob  in  the  matter  of  law  and  justice  and  hold 
us  innocent,  O  King  of  justice. 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  Thine 
awe  upon  all  Thy  works,  and  Thy  dread  upon  all 
that  Thou  hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear 
Thee  and  all  creatures  bow  before  Thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  Thy  will  with 
a  perfect  heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our

CONCLUDING  SERVICE  FOR 

God,  that  dominion  is  Thine,  strength  is  in  Thy 
hand,  and  might  in  Thy  right  hand,  and  that  Thy 
name  is  to  be  revered  above  all  that  Thou  hast 
created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  Thy  people, 
praise  to  them  that  fear  Thee,  hope  to  them  that 
seek  Thee,  and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for 
Thee,  joy  to  our  land,  gladness  to  our  city. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and 
the  upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly 
rejoice,  while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and 
all  wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like 
smoke,  when  Thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arro- 
gance to  pass  away  from  the  earth. 

And  Thou,  O  Lord,  shall  reign,  Thou  alone, 
over  all  Thy  work,  as  it  is  written  in  Thy  holy 
Word,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  Thy  God, 
O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  Thou,  and  dreaded  is  Thy  name,  and 
there  is  no  God  beside  Thee,  as  it  is  written,  And 
the  Lord  of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the 
holy  God  is  sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed 
art  Thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  King. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  to  be  Thy  messengers  to 
all  peoples  of  the  earth,  to  proclaim  to  them  Thy 
unity  and  to  exalt  the  sanctity  of  Thy  holy  name; 
Thou  hast  sanctified  us  by  Thy  commandments 
and  brought  us  near  unto  Thy  service,  O  our 
King,  and  called  us  by  Thy  great  and  holy  name.

384  CONCLUDING  SERVICE  FOR 

And  Thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  God,  this 
(Sabbath  day  and  this)  Day  of  Atonement  for  par- 
don, forgiveness,  and  atonement,  that  we  may 
(in  love)  obtain  pardon  thereon  for  all  our  iniqui- 
ties; an  holy  convocation,  as  a  memorial  of  the 
departure  from  Egypt 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers!  May  our 
remembrance  rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before 
Thee,  with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  and 
of  all  Thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  de- 
liverance and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Atonement. 
Remember  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our 
well-being;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save 
us  unto  life:  by  Thy  promise  of  salvation  and 
mercy,  spare  us  and  be  gracious  unto  us;  have 
mercy  upon  us  and  save  us;  for  our  eyes  are  bent 
upon  Thee,  because  Thou  art  a  gracious  and  mer- 
ciful God  and  King. 


The  day  is  passing;  the  sun,  sunk  beneath  the 
horizon,  illumines  the  heavens  with  the  bright 
colors  of  hope.  Strengthened  by  the  conviction 
that  Thou  art  our  help,  we  hope  on  Thy  mercy 
and  are  wending  our  way  onward  to  the  portals  of 
Thy  salvation.  If,  O  God,  in  the  pride  and 
haughtiness  of  our  hearts,  we  be  still  far  from 
Thee,  cause  us  to  perceive  clearly,  even  though  the 
road  appear  dark  to  us,  that  the  gates  of  grace 
are  ever  open  to  those  who  strive  to  enter.  Guided 
by  the  glad  rays  of  hope  that  our  faith  in  Thee 
casts  upon  our  sky.  may  we  unerringly  direct  our 
steps  to  Thee  in  sincerity  and  in  truth  on  this  and 
every  other  day.

386  CONCLUDING  SERVICE  FOR 

I,  even  I,  supplicate  Thee  on  behalf  of  the  house 
of  Israel  Thy  people  and  seek  a  hearing  of  my 
prayer.  Amidst  the  wailing  hearts  of  those  who 
stand  around;  my  sighs  multiply,  my  heart  leaps 
tip  to  Thee,  O  God  the  Rock  of  my  salvation.  We 
have  turned  aside  after  the  desires  of  our  hearts 
and  the  delights  of  our  eyes  and  have  rebelled 
against  Thy  righteous  word.  We  have  inclined 
toward  perverseness  and  acted  foolishly  in  our 
haughtiness. 

Therefore,  O  God,  do  we  beseech  Thee  at  this 
closing  hour  of  our  Day  of  Atonement  when 
wearied  with  the  consciousness  of  our  faultiness 
we  come  again  to  beseech  Thy  favor  that  Thou  wilt 
place  in  our  hearts  the  conviction  that  Thou  hast 
pardoned  our  sins. 

Help  us,  O  heavenly  Father,  to  placate  our  ene- 
mies, to  assuage  grief,  to  cement  our  friendships 
and  to  bring  peace  between  those  who  are  at  vari- 
ance with  one  another. 

Lend  us  Thy  aid,  O  God,  to  train  our  children 
aright  so  that  in  old  age  the  comfort  of  their  love 
and  attentions  may  sustain  and  brighten  our  de- 
clining years  and  when  the  sacred  moment  of  our 
departure  from  this  earth  arrives  may  our  souls 
sweetest  song  be  a  hymn  of  thanksgiving  to  Thee 
for  their  filial  piety. 

O  God  of  mercy  and  love,  if  we  place  not  our 
hopes  upon  Thee,  who  will  have  pity  upon  us? 
Therefore  if  Thou  inquire  into  our  iniquity  we 
will  flee  from  Thy  justice  to  Thy  clemency.  Re- 
member that  Thou  ha?t  formed  us  from  the  dust 
nnd  hast  tried  us  with  many  troubles,  permit  us 
not  therefore  to  journey  to  our  eternal  abode  till 
we  have  filled  our  days  with  good  deeds  that  we 
appear  not  empty  before  Thee. 


THE  DAY  OF   ATONEMENT  387 

May  it  be  Thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  turn 
unto  us  with  mercy,  and  to  cause  us  to  truly  repent 
our  faults.  Dispose  our  hearts  to  offer  sincere 
supplications  unto  Thee  and  deign  to  receive  our 
prayers.  Open  our  hearts  to  the  understanding 
of  Thy  Law  and  plant  in  our  thoughts  the  fear  of 
Thee.  Lead  us  not  into  temptation  and  deliver 
us  from  all  evil.  Direct  our  lips  in  the  utterance 
of  our  meditations  and  teach  us  to  guard  our  ways 
that  we  sin  not.  Yet,  O  God,  we  know  that  the 
good  works  of  those  who  supplicate  Thee  must 
precede  them  and  that  righteousness,  that  alone  ex- 
alts, must  plead  in  their  favor.  We  know  that  we 
are  not  perfect,  neither  are  we  utterly  bad,  there- 
fore do  we  beseech  Thee  not  to  cast  us  away  from 
Thy  presence.  And  when  we  depart  from  this 
world,  O  guide  us  in  peace  to  the  future  life  and 
place  us  in  glory  among  the  pious  whose  portion  is 
immortality.  O,  rescue  us  from  out  the  depths  of 
material  and  selfish  thoughts,  and  then  will  \ve 
each  say,  "I  will  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord,  for 
though  Thou  wast  angry  with  me,  Thine  anger 
was  turned  away  and  Thou  hast  comforted  me." 

Forgive,  O  God,  and  pardon  us  and  from  Thy 
glorious  heights   let   us  hear  that  gracious   word  : 


I  have  pardoned.

our  sin  and  take  us  for  Thine  inheritance.

THOU  boldest  out  Thy  hand  to  the  transgressor 
and  Thy  right  hand  is  ever  outstretched  to  lead  the 
repentant  back  to  Thee.  And  Thou  hast  taught 
us,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  when  we  frankly  con- 
fess our  sins  and  determine  to  refrain  from  wrong- 
doing, Thou  wilt  receive  us  in  grace  and  favor. 
Indeed,  Thou  knowest  that  our  latter  end  is  noth- 
ingness. Therefore  hast  Thou  multiplied  for  us 
the  means  of  repentance  that  we  may  fix  Thy 
peace  in  our  hearts  before  we  are  no  more.  What 
are  we?  What  our  lives,  our  graciousness,  our 
righteousness,  our  boasted  strength,  our  vaunted 
might?  What  can  we  tell  Thee,  O  Lord* our  God, 
and  God  of  our  fathers,  when  the  mighty  are  as 
naught  before  Thee,  the  famous  as  though  they 
had  not  been,  the  wise  as  though  they  lacked 
knowledge  and  the  intellectual,  devoid  of  reason ! 
Yea,  when  compared  with  Thee,  our  works  are 
void  and  our  lives  but  vanity. 

From  the  very  first,  Thou  didst  set  man  apart 
and  grant  him  the  privilege  to  plead  with  Thee. 
Who  can  inquire  into  Thy  works?  And  if  his 
search  be  justified,  what  can  he  grant  Thee?  But 
in  Thy  great  love  Thou  hast  given  us,  O  Lord  our 
God,  (this  Sabbath  day  and)  this  Day  of  Atone- 
ment, on  which  we  end  our  sinfulness  and  receive 
pardon  and  forgiveness  for  all  our  iniquities. 
Thus  dost  Thou  enable  us  to  forsake  wrong-doing 
and  return  to  the  performance  of  those  deeds 
which  are  pleasing  in  Thy  sight.  O  do  Thou,  in 
Thine  abundant  mercies,  have  pity  upon  us,  for 
Thou  canst  not  take  pleasure  in  the  destruction  of 
Thy  children.  Even  as  it  is  said:  Seek  ye  the 
Lord,  while  He  may  be  found;  call  ye  upon  Him

while  He  is  near.  Let  the  wicked  forsake  his  way 
and  the  unrighteous  man  his  thoughts,  and  let  him 
return  unto  the  Lord,  and  He  will  have  mercy 
upon  him,  and  to  our  God,  for  He  will  abundantly 
pardon.  But  Thou,  O  God  of  pardon,  art  gracious 
and  merciful,  long-suffering  and  full  of  compas- 
sion and  abounding  in  goodness.  Thou  art  pleased 
with  the  repentance  of  sinners  but  takest  no  de- 
light in  their  deaths.  And  Thou  hast  declared 
through  Thy  prophets:  Say  unto  them,  as  I  live, 
saith  the  Lord,  I  take  no  delight  in  the  death  of 
the  sinner  but  would  have  him  turn  from  his  ways 
and  live.  Therefore  turn  ye,  O  turn  ye,  from  your 
erring  ways,  for  why  will  ye  die,  O  house  of  Is- 
rael !  I  have  no  pleasure  in  death,  saith  the  Lord, 
therefore  turn  ye  and  live. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  pardon  our 
iniquities  (on  this  Sabbath  day,  andj  on  this  Day 
of  Atonement;  blot  out  our  transgressions  and 
our  sins,  and  make  them  pass  away  from  before 
Thine  eyes;  as  it  is  said,  I,  even  I,  am  He  that 
blotteth  out  thy  transgressions  for  Mine  own  sake; 
and  I  will  not  remember  thy  sins.  And  it  is  said, 
I  have  blotted  out,  as  a  cloud,  thy  transgressions, 
and,  as  a  mist,  thy  sins:  return  unto  Me,  for  I 
have  redeemed  thee.  And  it  is  said,  For  on  this 
day  shall  atonement  be  made  for  you,  to  cleanse 
you;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be  clean  before 
the  Lord.  (Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  ac- 
cept our  rest.)  Sanctify  us  by  Thy  command-

who  hallow  Thy  name,  rejoice  thereon) ;  and

tribes  of  Jeshurun  in  every  generation,  and  beside 
Thee  we  have  no  king  who  pardoneth  and  forgiv-

pardonest  and  forgivest  our  iniquities  and  the  in- 
iquities of  Thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel,  Who 
makest  our  trespasses  to  pass  away  year  by  year, 
King  over  al!  the  earth  who  sanctifieth  (the  Sabbath 
and)  Israel  and  the  day  of  Atonement. 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  Thy  people  and  their 
prayer;  and  may  the  service  of  Thy  people  Israel 
be  ever  acceptable  unto  Thee. 

Praised  be  Thou,  O  Lord,  Whom  alone  we 
worship  and  adore.  Amen. 

We  give  thanks  unto  Thee,  for  Thou  art  the 
Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers  for  ever 
and  ever;  Thou  art  the  Rock  of  our  lives,  the 
Shield  of  our  salvation  through  every  generation. 
We  will  give  thanks  unto  Thee  and  declare  Thy 
praise  for  our  lives  which  are  committed  unto  Thy 
hand,  and  for  our  souls  which  are  in  Thy  charge, 
and  for  Thy  miracles,  which  are  daily  with  us, 
and  for  Thy  wonders  and  Thy  benefits  which  Thou 
bestowest  upon  us  at  all  times,  evening,  morn  and 
noon.  O  Thou  Who  art  all-good,  whose  mercies 
fail  not;  Thou,  merciful  Being,  Whose  loving- 
kindness  never  ceaseth,  we  have  ever  hoped  in 
Thee. 

For  all  these  favors  Thy  name,  O  our  King, 
shall  Thy  name  be  blessed  for  ever  and  ever.

O  seal  all  the  children  of  Thy  covenant  for  a 
happy  life. 

May  all  the  living  pay  homage  unto  Thee,  and 
praise  Thy  name  in  truth,  O  God,  our  help  and 
salvation.  Blessed  art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Whose 
name  is  the  All-good,  and  unto  Whom  it  is 
proper  to  give  thanks. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with 
the  three- fold  blessing  of  Thy  Law  written  by 
the  hand  of  Moses  Thy  servant,  which  was  spoken 
by  Aaron  and  his  sons,  the  priests,  Thy  holy 
people,  as  it  is  said,  The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep 
thee:  the  Lord  make  His  face  to  shine  upon  thee, 
and  be  gracious  unto  thee:  the  Lord  turn  His  face 
unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  loving- 
kindness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel, 
Thy  people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of 
us  together,  with  the  light  of  Thy  countenance ;  for 
by  the  light  of  Thy  countenance  Thou  hast  given 
us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the  Law  of  life,  lovingkind- 
ness  and  righteousness,  blessing,  mercy,  life  and 
peace;  and  may  it  be  good  in  Thy  sight  to  bless 
Thy  people  Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every  hour 
with  Thy  peace. 

The  following  is  said  by  Congregation  and  repeated 
by  Reader: 

IN  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  sealed  be- 
fore Thee,  we  and  all  Thy  people  the  house  of 
Israel,  for  a  happy  life  and  for  peace.  Blessed 
art  Thou,  O  Lord,  Who  makest  peace.

398  CONCLUDING  SERVICE  FOR 

Our  Father  and  King,  we  acknowledge  no 
sovereign  but  Thee. 

Do  Thou  renew  for  us  a  goodly  year  and  heal 
all  our  infirmities. 

Turn  us  toward  Thee  with  a  perfect  repentance 
and  forgive  all  our  iniquities. 

Seal  us,  O  our  Father,  for  a  happy  life,  a  life 
in  which  sustenance,  innocence  and  salvation  shall 
be  our  portion  and  sustain  us  in  our  efforts  to 
maintain  our  children. 

Grant  all  this,  O  God,  for  the  sake  of  those  who 
were  martyred  in  Thy  holy  cause,  for  the  sake 
of  Thy  great  and  holy  name,  by  which  we  call  our- 
selves ;  and  even  though  there  be  no  good  deeds  of 
our  own  to  commend  us,  still  compassionate  us 
and  save  us. 

Reader  and  Congregation: 

Hear,  0  Israel,  the  Lord  is  our  God,  the  Lord 
is  one.  (ONCE.) 

Blessed  be  His  name,  Whose  glorious  kingdom 
is  for  ever.  (TWICE.) 

The  Lord,  He  is  God.     (THREE  TIMES.) 
The  Shofar  is  blown.
